Best approach? Migrating sites from WSS 3.0 to 64 bit MOSS 2007 and SQL2008

Summary

I have met lots of challenges with building the new 64 bit MOSS, and now I am nervous about the next step!

Anyone have suggestions for the BEST approach (least problems?)

I did a SQL backup and we have 32 Gb of data to move, then need to fix up the URLs for the users.

possible problems:
- SQL2005 to SQL2008
- 32bit to 64 bit
- WSS to MOSS (not a problem in itself I believe)
