I have done it only on Windows - surprise was date field with very old 
year.

For example - someone mistakenly entered date 20-12-0215.

Ingres 9 keep it without problem. It dump it to backup files.
Ingres 10 report error and cannot import this file.
Whole table is not imported !

So ... made a test installation, dump database, import to test, check 
for errors - if there is none, you can upgrade your real database.
