I had an error during a host transition and my 2.7 WP installation was lost. Luckily I made a habit of keeping a backup of both my database, uploads, and themes. Since config file was lost and I can't go through the standard upgrade.php.
How would I go about exactly re-installing, upgrading, and restoring my WP?
It shouldn't be too difficult
Download the 2.7 files from the release archive
Upload the files, uploads, theme, plugins
Recreate the wp-config.php - put in the db connection details etc.
Once you have it working, do the upgrade as normal.

Thanks that was relativly painless.
