Help. I have been tasked with upgrading a 2000 instance to 2005.

I have actually done this before, but it was a long time ago, and I
didn't do it alone. Now, the sitation is little different, and I need
to know the EXACT steps to take.

Does anyone have a FAQ or link that outlines migration steps? I found
one on sql server central, but it isn't very detailed.

One of the important things I need to know is, how do I create a
rollback plan if I am upgrading from 2000 to 2005 on the same server
(instance)?

Also, why can't I seem to find a comprehensive list of TO DO's when
upgrading? Doesn't microsoft provide this? You would think so. I will
run upgrade advisor first, but isn't there also documentation
somewhere?

I seem to recall lots of permissions issues that arose with 2005.

HELP

Thanks
