[Yum] Yum "article"

[Brad Cox]

Mind a suggestion for your article?

In view of the fedora vs RHN hoohah, there is gonna be a huge 
interest in cross-distro upgrades. The  only mentions I've seen say 
yum *might* work with a few "worked for me's", but nothing on when it 
might not or what could happen when it doesn't.

I'm making backups right now, hoping to upgrade from RH8 to fedora 
from a cheapo CD set I bought for insurance, being unwilling to trust 
the "might nots" above. Plan to do a clean install preserving only 
the /home partition, then use yum to update from there. It would be a 
HUGE help if someone had researched RH8 and RH9 to fedora conversion 
via yum and reported the results.
