Where are the old versions?

I had an installed 1.4 version of Alfresco that was in fairly heavy use for the past several years (has ~150GB of data in it).  I just became the administrator of this data and unfortunately need to either reinstall 1.4 on a new system for it to run on or upgrade to a new version (my preference).  However, when looking at the upgrade path, you can't go directly from a 1.4 version of the database schema to 3.2.  I have searched for days (literally) for older versions of Alfresco so I can either install 1.4, follow the documented upgrade path, or run an sql script to make all of the necessary database changes to get a working version of 3.2 with my old data.  Can anyone offer some advice?

Thanks,

Forrest

All the "installer" does is put files in the right place. 

You should be able to move your existing implementation from one box to another.    Just by copying files.   There may be a little tweaking of one or two paths in the config but it should be fairly simple.

I can get access to the 1.4 version of the installed files with some work (it is now only on a backup tape).  However, this won't help me with upgrading.  Am I totally out of luck with that?

Why don't you try upgrading a copy of your system and see what happens?  In theory it should work.
