Changing from RedHat 9 (Shrike) To Fedora?

[Dirk J. Botha]

Hi there,

Probably a noob question, but then again, I've only been using Linux for about 
6 months.

Lucky for me I have the advantage of being a C++ developer so I'm not a total 
idiot. The unlucky part is that I'm rather out of it as far as updateing my 
system is concerned. I've noticed that the RedHat up2date utility does not 
work for me, it keeps telling me that it's unable to register me. Regardless 
of what username I use.

Is it perhaps possible to update my system to Fedora, i.e. use a similar 
utility as "up2date" to look at the Fedora sources and RPMs to update my 
system? The purpose being to end up with a Fedora Core 2 system that I can
use in order to aid the development and testing.

I'd appretiate any assistance.

Regards,
Dirk J. Botha
