Depends what you mean - Are you wishing to copy everything, including 
all the user preferences (i.e. .XXX files/directories) or just the user 
data files.

If the later, then easy - just copy the files to some temp location 
(external disk etc.) Upgrade the system, recreate the accounts and copy 
back.

If the former you may have problems with compatibility, since RH7 is WAY 
older than FC6. I would suggest better not to bother and let the users 
recreate their preferences from scratch on the new system.
