1. Backup all databases. `man mysqldump` will help you here
2. Upgrade to 4.1
3. Purge 4.0 (a little while back this step used to remove the databases
for 4.1 as well, but it should be fixed now).
4. You may need to run /usr/bin/mysql_fix_privilege_tables. On second
though, you probably should run that script :)
