I upgraded another MAAS 1.5.2 to this beta4 and here are my observations:
- apparently one needs to import boot images again. Machines were just not
booting correctly, getting iscsi errors, images not found, etc. I clicked
on the import images button, waited for a while (had to use a network
monitor to know something was going on) and eventually had the magic number
for boot images available (129). Then booting worked again on my nodes.
- some nodes that were already in the ready state before the upgrade were
still booting with the old IP after the upgrade, instead of the new static
range. Do we need to clear out the leases file or something? Or trigger a
DNS rewrite by changing the hostname temporarily? No nodes were in use when
I did the upgrade: all were just "ready".

I'm still debugging this last issue in a node. It boots on a 10.96.1.x
address (old) but dns already points to the new 10.96.5.x one (from the
static range). I recomissioned it again, and now it doesn't even have a dns
entry anymore.
