Hey all,

Like many I'm psyched that an upgradeable G2 is finally here!! But- does anybody have any tips on getting G2A3 albums into G2A4?? I know it was a bad idea but i have a site running off G2A3 and I would like to get some of these albums into G2A4. I did not try installing A4 over the SQL data for A3 yet... I'm not sure if I should.. Any tips? No flames, please :)

If the upgrader doesn't work (and it very well might not), then it would involve you checking out the differences between the old and new db structure and manually making the changes. There are some threads with the instructions around, but I can't think of them off the top of my head.

This is definatly not an easy thing to do and one of the main reasons you shouldn't use G2 in "production" yet :)
