Are you going to replace RH5 or do you want Fedora to run With RH5?

Do you want to have the option to boot into one or the other, or do you want
them to run simultaneously with one running in a window on the other?

Are you leaving RH5 or wishing to upgrade to Fedora to get some of the newer
functions available in Fedora that have yet to be released into RH?

Just a couple clarifying questions so we can better help.
