Hello,

I have a database running on potato using postgres 6.5 that I'd like to upgrade to 
Woody running postgres 7.2.

The docs seem to imply that upgrading with this big a jump from 6.5 to 7.2 is 
dangerous.....even if I do it by hand like so:

pg_dump mydatabase > dump.mydatabase
destroydb mydatabase
upgrade the database system to 7.2
createdb mydatabase
psql < dump.mydatabase

Can this large jump be made safely?

If not, I don't see any other versions of postgres available for debian...so how 
should it be done in smaller increments?

Do my steps above look reasonable?

Thanks, Henry Hollenberg   [EMAIL PROTECTED]
