I have upgraded 3 freeside servers in the last month.  Each time I did a 
pg_dump of the freeside database.  Installed freeside of the same 
version on the new machine.  I then dropped the new DB, and restored it 
with my pg_dump.  Then I would run freeside-upgrade if  I was also 
upgrading freeside versions as well.  Be careful when you are using a 
postgresql version higher than what was on the orginal production box, 
as it seems to entail some weirdness along the lines of invalid 
sequences.  But its an easy fix.
