Yes, that is correct.

Ensure you have a complete updated Feisty (7.04) system.  Then upgrade 
to Gutsy (7.10):

Ensure you have a complete updated Gutsy (7.10) system.  Then upgrade to 
Hardy (8.04) LTS:

I would recommend staying at Hardy as it is supported for 3 years 
(desktop) / 5 years (server) and you can upgrade right to 10.04 LTS when 
is comes along.  If you want to have the latest and greatest, do the 
same procedure as above, but for Intrepid.

Ensure you have a complete updated Hardy (8.04) LTS system.  Then 
upgrade to Intrepid (8.10):

Hope this gets you where you want to be ;)
