Yah, most Fedora users will warn you against such if you ask preinstall. If you're asking whether or not you can simply upgrade from Fedora to CentoOS, I'm pretty sure the answer is no. You can migrate by doing fresh installs, ie. redeploying the system however. Do tell, what packages of yours require recompilation every kernel upgrade? That seems a bigger issue. Also, why aren't you using (what I believe to be) freely available Fedora build systems to automate the process - regardless of your final choice of distro. Good luck. > -- > Paul E.
