This is perhaps better accomplished by using a separate partition
for your data and system. IOW, perhaps you should put /home, and
perhaps /usr/local and /opt, on separate partitions. This is a good
idea, anyway, because then if you have the room, you can have two
"root" partitions, and upgrade/install on only one of them. If the
new system has some problems, then you can revert which one you boot.

Well, if you don't like churn, then FC is possibly not the best distro
