We just upgraded 1.4.2 to 1.6.2, by building a new server. We imported and ran the db updates. You have to watch for any errors and make sure you take care of them. (Seems like they had to do with indexes not being named exactly as the script predicts.)
The assetstore is a simple copy; the structure hasn't changed. We built the handle server fresh on the new machine, then updated the config.dct file with the necessary parameters. It worked fine afterward without contacting CNRI. If you go this route, though, it's important that the name/IP of your server remain the same. Otherwise, you'll have to send CNRI your updated files.
