Help upgrading from 6 R2 to 7
So found another post here.
It turns out that VPP on a share is a no go, copy files locally and change the path int EPiServer.config and it will work...
This... was... painfull, now 7->7.5 YAY!

Looking at the ps lines in question
$packageRegistrationXml = "
Add-EPiXmlBlock -TargetFilePath $packagesConfigPath -ElementXPath "/packages" -XmlBlock $packageRegistrationXml
Can anyone help me get a bit wiser on this issue?
