upgrading redhat from 8.0 -> fedora core 3

["bruce" <bedouglas earthlink net>]

hi,

i want to upgrade a redhat 8.0 to fedora core 3, using yum.

as i understand the process, i need to get the yum for the fedora core 3.
(is this correct?)

i should:

su - root

rpm --import http://fedora.redhat.com/about/security/4F2A6FD2.txt

http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/3/i386/os/Fedora/RPM
S/yum-2.1.11-3.noarch.rpm

http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/3/i386/os/Fedora/RPM
S/fedora-release-3-8.i386.rpm

rpm -Uvh --force fedora-release*.rpm
rpm -Uvh --force yum-2.1.11*.rpm

yum upgrade yum python rpm-python rpm glibc glibc-common \
                redhat-config-\* XFree86\* libxml2\*

//yum upgrade rpm python yum

update the /etc/yum.conf file with the following:

[main]
cachedir=/var/cache/yum
debuglevel=2
logfile=/var/log/yum.log
pkgpolicy=newest
distroverpkg=fedora-release
tolerant=1
exactarch=0
# Added this because some mirrors go down and then retying takes forever.
retries=1
timeout=10

# Basic Repos are in /etc/yum.conf.d/ #

if i understand everything, i should be at a point where i can do:

yum upgrade

which should then begin the process of upgrading everything from redhat 8 to
fedora core 3.

have i missed anything????

thanks
