Seth was kind enough to put together a little guide for yum upgrades though
we kind of criticized it for not being foreboding enough.  There were some
very significant changes between FC1 and FC2, which require a large amount
of system support for upgrades.  Anaconda handles these as gracefully as it
can. The rpms individual %pre scripts, leave some out.  Seth's guide can be
found here:
