I did it and everything is working just fine. Follow the instructions in the
release notes regarding udev and with the fedora-release package and yum.
You can then use yum. If you like apt, change the version numbers in the
config file for the repos.
I've got mad-wifi installed, so I didn't want to do a clean install because it
would get rid of my drivers. Anaconda might have messed something up. I
really didn't want to have to lug my desktop upstairs to plug it into the
router.
YMMV
