With a planned move to FC3 coming up. What issues do I have to look at for shared home directories between FC1 and FC3. The users need to move back an forth between installs until there is confidence that productivity won't be affected and all applications are installed in FC3.

I have noticed that some applications don't have the same features in FC3 (GIMP, scripting and file type support).


As far as I know there are some incompatibilities regarding gnome
(different versions), evolution and may be others.

I use symlinker by Maro Dölle (you will find it in google). It will
install itself as an init script. You put all your Fedora Core 1
specific files in a subdir, eg. .FC1, of each users home dir and
accordingly all the Fedora Core 3 Files into .FC3  The init script will
create symbolic links during boot up so you will see the right files if
you boot FC 1 or FC 3

Thanks. I figured as much. I will try it.
