My personal experience is:
1) I upgraded my working FC4 to FC5 from the DVD. It took
a very long time. The resulting system didn't work.
(Random freezes in X, various random crashes, even in yum!).
2) I formated the partition, and installed FC5 from scratch.
The result is again a non-working system. Crashes do not
happen any more, but the system randomly locks under X.
If you don't want a desktop, you are fine :-)
And all these, on a (previously) working FC4 system.
No, I thnk it was foolish to upgrade. I suggest you to
wait untill all these issues are solved.
Also, it would be good if anybody can suggest me on how
to get help on this, as I don't have a worning linux box any more.
Where should I look? How to find out why my kernel locks?

Subject: worth upgrading/ installing?
anyone think or know if it is worth upgrading to FC5 from FC4?
is it more worthwhile to do it a clean install?
