Back in june, I warned my colleagues that doing so wasn't the safest way. Then the software reseller recently did a documentation explicitly detailing an upgrade from 5.x to 6.x as a working solution, I thought they've been doing extensive tests on this. They probably just saw that the official RHEL6 installer had an upgrade option, tested on a basic RHEL5 installation, saw that the server was rebooting correctly and thought that everything was OK. They are to blame but I think Red Hat shouldn't allow something unsupported and clearly broken!
