Thanks for sharing your story, and I regret that you had problems.
However, I must recommend against "upgrading" from 7.2 as opposed to
doing a fresh install. I think most people would agree with me. There
is just too much difference in th OS's. Its much safer to do a complete
backup and fresh install in that case.
