That won't stop it from starting.

Let's assume that the poster has half a clue e.g poster is upgrading
from 9.3 -> 9.4 therefore it is reasonable to assume the poster has
already successfully done the 9.1 -> 9.2 -> 9.3 upgrades, and hence
used the same methodology.
I may be wrong BUT if they used a new internal storage format then I
think that it would not be 9.3 -> 9.4 but 9.3 -> 10.x
The other clue is that the poster said I'll try that when I get to *work*
tonight.
