Where would I find instructions to do this ?

install fedora-release* RPMs, then run "yum -y upgrade", reboot and
you're finished.

I usually run screen in case of a disconnection from the server during the update. You would not want the yum to quit in the middle of an upgrade.

I also pipe the output to 'tee' so that I can save the output to a file to go over any .rpmsave and .rpmnew files for changes.

I usually do it this way:
1. run screen. Don't run yum as an argument to screen or screen will quit afterwards.
screen
2. run yum piping the output to tee.
yum upgrade | tee upgrade.log
