Upgrade from 1.4.27 to 1.6x

Hi,

It's been years but I  want to get my 1.4.27 gallery updated to the latest version, 1.6.x.  I have read a good number of posts but it still not qquite clear yet.

1. To upgrade from 1.4.27, I would download the full version of 1.5.46, upload it to my current gallery folder and then run the 'update.php'?
2. And then I would download the 1.6.x (does matter which 1.6 version?) and then run the 'update.php'?

Is there anything I am missing here?  Are there specific versions (and in what order) I should be using to get from 1.4.27 all the way to 1.6.10?

Note: I am aware about php version and I savvy enough to do my upgrade in a development environment.

Thank you.

Anyone?  I just tried to do it on my own. It completely became a mess having all kinds of file errors. Can someone please tell me what the actually steps to tak to get me upgraded?  Do you remove all the old files first and then install 1.5.x? Do you remove the 1.5.x before upgrading to 1.6.x?

So does anyone know the official steps to get me upgraded from 1.4.27 to 1.5.x to 1.6.x. 

Also, the 1.6.x files are way smaller than the 1.5.46 package.  is there a full package of 1.6? (yes, I did click on the download link from the home page but I still got a small file).

Please, can someone get me going in the right direction? I have two of these sites I need to upgrade.

Thank you.

Follow the instructions here to upgrade from 1.4.x to 1.5.x.
Then follow the instructions here to upgrade from 1.5.x to 1.6.x.
( for an easier method to upgrade from 1.5.x.to 1.6.x, follow the instructions here )

Thank you.  Going from 1.5.x to 1.6 isn't quite clear.  In the second link you've provide, I didn't read if I should be uploading the 1.6 package or not?.  The only package I found was called this: cpg1.6.x-1.6.04.zip.  I did not find one that is named as 1.5.x-1.6.04.zip or something similar.  Also, does cpg_installer_stub.php script work for upgrading from 1.5 to 1.6?  I did try using the script but it didn't work. 

There is a lot of 'blah blah' in those instructions that tends to get me lost.  I am sorry that I am not competent enough to understand what I am missing or doing wrong.  I am so spoiled by step by step instructions that gets to point of what you should be performing/completing before moving on to the next step.
Thank you.

The cpg_installer_stub, when used to upgrade from 1.5.x to 1.6.x, does the job for you of getting the files on the server ... and then running the update.
First, you need to get your sites from 1.4.x to 1.5.x(48).

Can you provide links to the sites you are trying to upgrade?
