I upgraded from 2.8 to 3.0 last night. I have a separate /home partition and had no problem carrying out the upgrade and preserving all my files. I did encounter a problem with Grub but once that was sorted I had no other problems. I was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to upgrade with the separate /home partition, I had visions of it not being as straightforward as it appeared to be and expected that I was going to have to restore files from my backup.
