Upgrade to FC4 from FC3 without having to re download and then burn cds and recreate partition?
As I said, its on the fedora d/l server, its http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/test/3.92/i386/os/im... for FC4 test 3 and http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/3/i386/os/images/boo... for 3 and will be http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/4/i386/os/images/boo... for when 4 comes out in a couple of days.
Anyone for how to do a Harddrive upgrade install?

I am very excited about the soon release of Fedora Core 4. However, I want to upgrade from Fedora Core 3 in an easier way than doing the procedure that is required for the first install you do, downloading all of the ISOs, then burning them to discs, and then use Disk Druid to erase partition (and all of my lovely data) and recreate it. I hear of alot of people saying that they upgraded, and am curious about how it is done.
If you have a fast Internet connection, you can download boot.iso, burn it to a CD, and then kick off an HTTP install by booting off that.
Without a fast 'net connection, you can download all the ISOs, and do an upgrade from them. That will save you from the repartitioning and recreating bit.

I have a DSL line, does that count? :) where would I find boot.isos, then?

I'm sure any high speed line would work - yours probably will. I just need to know where to find the "boot.iso" Elliot mentioned. Maybe you can ask him for me?
