It took about 2 and a half hours for me. Then I had to fix the breakage.

*** If you have the nVIDIA kmod stuff installed from rpmforge, uninstall
before you upgrade. It is a lot less painful than rebuilding initrd on the
command line. (Which I have done before, but not for the squeamish.)
Actually I would remove ALL the kmod packages before the upgrade. ***

There are a bunch of Perl modules that need to be rebuilt. A bunch of mono
cruft. I don't remember what else. I will be working on it tonight.
