First off, I would suspect it might be easier to just backup the users
data and do a clean install. If thats not possible however:

how are you doing the upgrade? If you boot from the cd and select
upgrade it will do all the work for you. You shouldn't probibly try
and upgrade manually via rpm command line or the like. 

6.1 might be too old to let the krud9 upgrade it by default (might say
it's too old), but you can force that with a:

linux  upgradeany
