no, I bailed on trying to upgrade via yum..... way to many errors for me to 
be brave enough to go ahead and destroy the box : )

I'm trying to go back now - to reset yum for FC2.  Yum never did install any 
of the fc3 packages.  yum.conf is set up with the standard FC2 config.

I appreciate the help......
