Can some one provide instructions to upgrade fedora 6 to fedora 9. What are the precautions that needs to be taken so as to not break the system and existing configurations.

Here's how I'd think about it: how would you get the system configuration
and data back if the hard drive failed? At this level of update, you're
probably best doing a clean install and then recreating your existing
configuration. (Easiest to do if you have /home on a separate partition.)


Thats the constraint i have. The linux box has apache, php, mysql,svn, openfire, openvpn, samba and many more applications running. Doing a fresh installation and reconfiguring all these applications would be a very time consuming task. Is there some other alternative that is more feasible rather than a fresh installation.

Thanks
