Short answer: you should not try to upgrade from FC1 to FC2 using
YUM/APT.  Anaconda needs to do the upgrade for you.  You may be able to
do an upgrade using the boot.iso CD image.


The Fedora Core 2 installation, at the very least, needs to be run under
kernel 2.6.  Maybe you could use YUM/APT to upgrade but the system may
not work afterward.
