Hi,
Be carefull!!!!  I have tried the yum upgrade method from fc2 to the
latest fc3test version.
For me it did not work and I have not found a work-around to my problem.

The thing is that everything seems to go fine as described by the
experts all the way till reboot time.  Then my computer stops loading at
a point where it "switch to new root". And thats it.  The hard disk does
some work and it all stops.

Luckily I did this on a test machine so no info are lost but be carefull
to make back ups and be prepared to do a complete install if all goes wrong.

Please check out mails with the subject "yum upgrade?"
