It was running NetBSD-10.1_stable from just a week or so ago. I just
changed the RELEASEDIR	in sysupgrade.conf to the one in the
release candidate announcement and ran sysupgrade auto. I was surprised
that I didn't have to do anything interactive for etcupdate. Just now I
took a look at my /etc/rc.conf and what I saw was two copies of what I
had, one after the other. As I was scratching my head over that the X
server died and then the system crashed. I haven't yet investigated
that.

Also, I noticed earlier that firefox and sylpheed which I had installed
with pkgin long ago had disappeared.

Perhaps not the best way to upgrade to a major release?
