Question : How do I make a copy of a Sharepoint and move it to a virtual test environment on the domain?

I have a production MOSS 2007 server (SRV1) and would like to take a snapshot of it and move it onto Hyper-v which is on the same domain to test the 2010 upgrade.

Here are the steps recommended so far. Does anyone have any suggestions/corrections or a better ways of performing this task? Is there a way to avoid step 5?

1. Reset the local admin password for SRV1
2. Use Disk2VHD to create a copy of SRV1
3. Load copy of SRV1 onto Hyper-v and power up, set new ip addresses
4. Log onto copy of SRV1 with local credentials, remove from domain, rename to vSRV1, reboot
5. Log onto original SRV1 with local credentials, remove from domain, reboot
6. Log onto vSRV1 with local credentials, add to domain
7. Log onto original SRV1 with local credentials, add to domain

BTW, I'm new to this so let me know if I should increase the point value of the question.
