and then restore my data.
Can this be done?
You can try but you can loose everything. I tried to go from FC2
to FC5 in one step and it cratered the whole thing. It will not come
up. I got most of what was important out by mounting it to another
linux and bring files and directories over.
As for FC5 I got it going but it was just too much for me. I could
not get it to work right. I am back with FC2 and happy.

It certainly can be done, by upgrading to FC-4 and then to FC-5.
I'm not sure if it can be done in one step,
but I doubt if you will lose anything by trying.
Heh, didn't even try FC4? Right now it's far more stable and up to date
than FC2. I need the new features of FC5 though, so I'm sticking around
with it. :)
