Just If someone is interested. You can find preupgrade rpm's here, just in case you'll like to try this kind of live upgrade (from F7,F8 -> F9). I'm just upgrading my laptop with it. -- Chema

Thanks for the tip!  I've been hoping Fedora would someday have this option available.  It may
seem a small thing, but it makes upgrading to a new release seem so much nicer and easier.  I
just did an over-the-net distribution upgrade on Ubuntu that worked pretty well.  Great job
Fedora folks!
