And that's where you may start to run into the problems that started
with FC2T3 and beyond dual-boot installs/upgrades, but only with some
hardware configurations.  Expect we have not heard the last of these
issues.  Please post success/failure when you try the update.  I'm going
to try to upgrade my FC1/XP notebook as soon as the torrent finishes
supplying  me with all the ISOs (just finished a full backup).
