You can do this, I've done it myself with phpBB2.017. If you see the docs directory which comes with phpBBXS, there are instructions. I advise you to back up everything first, and maybe make a dummy phpbb 2.0.17 forum first, and practice upgarding on that, before doing it for real, just so you see whats going on. Most importantly you will need to run the SQL upgrade script, not the install script, but this is all outlined in the instructions. This upgrade script will not remove anything already in your SQL database, but will instead add new tables and fields for the phpbbXS mods. Good Luck!
