I just successfully completed the F7 => F9 preupgrade process on this 
first machine.  So preupgrade works fine on F7.  The WIKI needs changed 
to say "... on an existing Fedora 7 or above installation".  You want 
people to upgrade, but by saying only F8 and above you are discouraging 
F7 users from upgrading.   F7 users need to know that 'preupgrade' works 
fine for them as well.
