 * Running 0.72 rc1 on apache. I just got 0.71 up the other day, have made no changes
   to speak of to the codebase.
    1) I deleted all the files except b2config.php.
   2) I uploaded the 0.72rc1 package 3) I edited and renamed wp-config.php, providing
   sql connection info. Tried to go to [http://halr9000.com/wp-admin/upgrade-071-to-072.php](http://halr9000.com/wp-admin/upgrade-071-to-072.php)
   and click next and I get this: Step 1 There are some changes we need to make 
   to the links tables with this version, so lets get those out of the way. SQL/
   DB Error — [Table ‘halr9000_com_-_b2.wp_links’ doesn’t exist] Warning: Invalid
   argument supplied for foreach() in /var/www/html/wp-admin/wp-install-helper.php
   on line 37 SQL/DB Error — [Table ‘halr9000_com_-_b2.wp_links’ doesn’t exist] 
   SQL/DB Error — [Table ‘halr9000_com_-_b2.wp_links’ doesn’t exist] And it keeps
   going on and on and on.

 * You probably need to fix the table names in wp-config.php. I would double check
   that.
