You need to fully reinstall your Linux install every upgrade?

That might be a symptom of Ubuntu usage, but many other distros handle upgrades gracefully. Arch is an example of this.

Perhaps it depends on the distro. You certainly have to reinstall to upgrade to a new version of CentOS (which is what I use on all my servers).
