Upgrade troubles from b2 .61

I’m trying to install the latest version of WordPress. Currently I’m running b2 0.61. In the WordPress b2config.php I made the names of my SQL tables wp+* instead of b2* in order to keep my current db in place until I complete the upgrade. Will this not work or did I just do something wrong? I ran wp-install and then b2-2-wp afterwards. If it’s possible to import my old b2 tables I’d like to save them. Below is the text of the error message I get in step 2 of b2-2-wp:
———BEGIN ERROR TEXT——–
Step 2
First we’re going to add excerpt, post, and password functionality…
SQL/DB Error —
[Table ‘wantmoore_com.wordpress_posts’ doesn’t exist]
SQL/DB Error —
[Table ‘wantmoore_com.wordpress_posts’ doesn’t exist]
That went well! Now let’s clean up the b2 database structure a bit…
SQL/DB Error —
[Table ‘wantmoore_com.wordpress_posts’ doesn’t exist]
One down, two to go…
SQL/DB Error —
[Table ‘wantmoore_com.wordpress_settings’ doesn’t exist]
So far so good.
SQL/DB Error —
[Table ‘wantmoore_com.wordpress_settings’ doesn’t exist]
Almost there…
SQL/DB Error —
[Table ‘wantmoore_com.wordpress_users’ doesn’t exist]
All done!
——-END ERROR TEXT———
Thanks in advance for the help!
