apt .
| I think next is apt-get dist-upgrade and manual a  latest kernel install

daemons?

Hi,
I did this once from FC2 to FC3 and ended up with a lot of double
installed packages.  To remove, I found the best way was to use synaptic
and deinstall those with the lowest version no.  However, some critical
packages had to be removed using yum.

After this experience I decided to have a seperate /home and do a fresh
install of OS.

Regards,
Truls
