There is an upgrade option (anaconda, the installer will detect an
existing RH Linux installation and ask you to upgrade)

If all settings will still work as before, its a bit hit-and-miss. It
should all work, but if a breakage occurs, don't be surprised

That said, I've done this before, from RH8->FC1, and it has all just
worked out well for me
