How to upgrade this? What is the path?

The upgrade path tool starts at 5.4.

thanks

Go into the release notes for the target version. It should show you most of the available upgrade paths.

Or look into the upgrade matrix for older versions:

Link is visible in the FortiOS Version Upgrade Path tool page...

hint: download the corresponding Excel sheet and filter for your version.

Given that v5.0.0 (b128) is 8 years old, I'd rather install a newer version bluntly, and rebuild a valid config, than upgrade each and every minor version up to v5.4 or v5.6. There have been major changes (i.e. between v5.2 and v5.4 IIRC) which need manual configuration anyway.
