I don't even think this is possible, and even if it is, my suspicion is
you're asking for a lot of trouble. 

Just make a copy of your installed packages (rpm -qa), your home
directories, then do a fresh install of F12, update, edit the
package list to be a script of "yum installs" and run it, and
copy your home directories back over.
