Well, with PPCs it works a little differently. Upgrades are usually not the same as they are on a PC. Upgrading the ROM (which OS is stored on) has in the past always completely erased the ROM and then written the new image (in this case, containing MM2003) to the now blank ROM. With PPC2002 A00 to A02 upgrades (and others similar), you could restore your files after this as long as you had a backup. But I'm not 100% sure if you will be able to do this since it is an ENTIRELY different OS on the system after this upgrade.
