I'm psyching myself up to migrate my Linux Plone site from 2.5.1 to 2.53. I'm new to Linux, so everything from making back up copies to shutting down Plone has a learning curve. I've found some good reference sites with specific command syntax, so I think I'm almost ready to dive in.
But before I do I need some clarification: - Can I upgrade straight from 2.5.1 to 2.5.3, or do I need to step to 2.5.2 first, then 2.5.3? This isn't clear in the doc I've found. - The readme for the Linux Unified Installer says that "installer-based automatic upgrades are not supported", and I'll have to copy over my Data.fs and third-party products to a new folder. But the upgrade doc I found on plone.org says that if you're using "the installers", you shouldn't have to worry about that. I know the Windows installer just "overwrote" my existing Plone files with the upgrades. It makes it sound like I've got to effectively do a new Plone installation just to migrate. If so, then I've got to really plan for my site to be down a while, especially if I've got to step to 2.5.2 first.
