[cisco-voip] upgrade during install from 9.0 to 9.1

[Justin Steinberg]

Agreed.  Especially when you can download the non-bootable upgrade ISO to
go from 9.0 to 9.1.   Then if a subscriber fails, you have to get with TAC
to get a bootable 9.1 (hours), or go through the edelivery (days) all over
again.    This is a time consuming process.
