This is Debian, not Ubuntu!  Upgrading-in-place is Easy.

Presuming you have a good internet connection, this *should* be all 
you need to do:

1. Edit sources.list, replacing all lenny or stable references with
   testing.

2. # apt(itude) update && apt(itude) dist-upgrade

3. Reboot. to activate new kernel.

4. Edit sources.list, replacing testing with unstable.

5. # apt(itude) update && apt(itude) dist-upgrade

6. Reboot, to activate new kernel.


Certainly, though, I'm forgetting something.
