I am not sure whether this will work for 3.8 since i have not tested it. But what i do for 3.4 (or 3.2 though that involves running another script after upgrade) to 3.6 is to install 3.6 normally. then delete the 3.6 database and repalce with a dump from 3.4. On  a login to the staff client, koha automatically senses the older database and upgrades to 3.6.

Hope that helps.
