What are the issues? I upgraded two machines (using yum upgrade) from
FC4 without trouble. I'd like to upgrade our server next (reinstallation
is not an option) and would like to avoid any known issues.
Then you need to upgrade from FC2 -> FC3 -> FC4 -> FC5.
Also, don't do "yum upgrade", use anaconda, booting from a CD instead.
Using
"yum upgrade" there are 20 some odd "corner cases" and such that are
not
handled (things about the changes between FC4 -> FC5. Anaconda knows these
things and gets things right.
I had excellent results upgrading my FC4 notebook to FC5 using Anaconda.
