There is some advice on this in the Windows FAQ.  You can see the 
current version online at

http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/rw-FAQ.html#What_0027s-the-best-way-to-upgrade_003f

If you're not using Windows, most of the advice in that FAQ item is 
still good (though the paths & filenames will be different).
