   I've done major upgrades to remote Pi's and while it was a bit of a   
   squeaky bottom time, they all worked and came back up with the new OS.   
      
   Ironically it was a minor update to one of my remote Pi's which resulted   
   it not coming back on the VPN. I had to then drive an hour to sort it   
   out, and found it had just hung on rebooting, as can occasionally   
   happen, and was fine after a power cycle.   
      
   Using an internet connected switched socket would have fixed that   
   without having to be there, but I still haven't got around to buying one.
