Actually I did, unfortunately.  Bad call on my part.  That repository will
probably be great once you have performed the upgrade to FC2, but not for
upgrading from FC1.  I used this respository to do a dist-upgrade and it, like,
uninstalled X and a bunch of other important things (including apt).
Furthermore apt is incompatible with the new version of rpm, which is part of
FC2.  Anyway, since next to nothing worked anymore, I used my CD's to go back
to FC1.

Later I read on the test mailing list that only cd upgrades are really
supported.  You're not supposed to use dist-upgrade with these test
releases...for some reason.

Word to the wise: use the iso images and anaconda rather than apt to upgrade,
at least with test versions.
