Thanks for the clarification. In either case, I still won't have FC6
to boot to after the upgrade, if I understand correctly. Given that, I
think I'll play it safe and not try to fix what ain't broke. I'll
upgrade in a few weeks when things have settled down and Fedora has
had a chance to fix any immediate issues with F7.

cheers....
