Upgrade from 32-bit to 64-bit Fedora Linux without a system reinstall
,----[ Quote ]
| Updating from Fedora 7 i386 to Fedora 8 x86_64 isn't supported, and many
| folks will tell you to just reinstall in order to move to a 64-bit Linux.
| However, I managed to resolve the main problems when doing a yum update in a
| single day. Your mileage will vary depending on what third-party repositories
| you're using, how much software you've installed by hand, and how dependent
| your software is on the system libraries.
