As long as you have mythconverg and your storage on non-system
partitions or on their own disks (you don't have your database and
storage on system partitions, right?) it will probably be a whole lot
simpler to do a fresh install of Fedora 8 or Mythdora. If you try to
upgrade through so many versions it will take a lot more time, and
will most likely break a whole lot of things.
