I went straight from RH9 to FC2.  I admit that I had my fingers crossed
though.  *smile*

Thanks Josh.  Nothing too special so I may give it a try.  Did you go
right from RH9 to FC2? Or do the intermediate upgrade too? 
  
Thanks again.

I have upgraded RH9 to FC2 and FC1 to FC2. However, if you install
anything that is 
not from Fedora, the upgrade doesn't work so well.  So if you use
FreshRPMs, Dag, 
Livna, RPMForge, ATRPMS, etc, upgrading is not a good idea. 
  
Also, if you need to sync a palm, wait.  There is a bug in FC4 for which
I am still waiting 
on resolution.

I have a box running FC2 I would like to upgrade to FC4.  Does FC
actually
do upgrades and if they do, has anybody had any luck with them (first
hand)
and do you know of any gotchas?

Thanks.
