You really shouldn't have to do all that over again. Most of your local tweaks will affect files in /etc and in your home directory. I recommend making a backup of /etc/ as an upgrade may play with some of those files. Ideally, an upgrade won't alter any configuration files and they normally save off the old configuration for you, or put a new one in whateverconfigfile.rpmnew. You should also make a backup of /home just to be safe, but in a normal install or upgrade you can tell it not to fdisk the /home or other partitions. I recommend saving the output of 'mount' so you don't accidentally wipe out an unintended partition. Ideally, print it out. > Shan
