Comment (by Disreali):
How are you "upgrading" your install. If you are installing a new version
of Haiku over an older one, then you are experiencing the expected
behaviour, the new install overwrites your old one.
My own method of 'upgrading' is to use multiple Haiku installs. From
install-1, I re-initailize the partition of install-2 and do a fresh
install. I then copy over the settings from install-1 to install-2. I
also make a backup elsewhere. I know this method is not available to
everyone.
IIRC, there is not a true 'upgrade-route' until package management is
completed.
