Yesterday, I was able to find the time between meetings to try the
conversion approach that Christian suggested, and it appeared to work. I
have to test it again today, to make sure I didn't somehow trick myself.
As for jumping to the later
One more question-- is there a reason why you're going 1.7.7.1 - 1.7.8,
instead of just jumping straight to the latest 1.7.x (or even latest
2.0.x)? There have been a great many bugs fixed since 1.7.8, including, I
believe, some about key lengths with mysql utf-8 indexes.

Hi Eric,
It sounds like a lot of the problems boil down to the MyISAM vs. InnoDB
incompatibility. I recommend altering the tables using the MySQL command line
and not a dump/load. You should be able to do this by performing the following
on each table:
ALTER TABLE `tablename`
