Success. I decided to go ahead and do the upgrade with

so far is that 1) yun and up2date don't seem to work...
up2date
Repository base already added, not adding again
You haven't been though ~root/upgrade.log and merged the
.rpmnew/.rpmsave config files it mentions, have you?
What's happening here is that probably that you have the same repos
defined in both yum.conf and yum.repos.d. Fix your repos and make sure
they're pointing to FC4 versions before trying a yum update.

I tred my test run of the FC4 installer and I was able to hotadd back
the other slices without any problems.
Strange; I didn't see that problem.
Do you have a /etc/mdadm.conf file? It's not actually *needed* but if
you have one you can get your system to send you an email if one of the
mirrors degrades.
You can create one from scratch using:
# mdadm --detail --scan > /etc/mdadm.conf
and then append a line:
MAILADDR you@xxxxxxxxxxx
and it will send email to you@xxxxxxxxxxx if there's a problem with your
arrays (make sure that the mdmonitor service is running though).
