Here's a hacked version of the script that I use:

I create a bootable USB stick using the usual methods and then put this
script on too. The idea is that instead of trying to live upgrade, I run
from a known good environment.

Is this script for a particular version upgrade? I notice a list of shared
object libraries near the end. I have not yet compared to what is on my
system.

I've used it on -5/i386, -6/i386 and -7/i386. It also deals with existing amd64 installs (because it can be interrupted and it will pick up where it left off).
