The release notes say that an upgrade install is not possible for Beta 1.  A 
clean install into a separate partition is possible, and XP is one of the 
few cases that can work as a dual boot with Vista Beta 1.  But even if the 
release notes say this, it's a big risk.  I put Beta 1 in a guest under 
Virtual PC instead.

In place upgrades are not supported in the beta release.
