I did a downgrade from Fedora 8 to RHEL-5 (FC6 fork). While it needed a
lot to be done manually (sorry I don't remember details, roughly it was
like:
rpm -q --qf '%{name}\n' |xargs yumdownloader
rpm --force -Uvh *.rpm
I hope you can figure out what can get wrong, and hopefully F9 is not
that different from F8 as RHEL5 is from F8.

Feel free to grab testing release and test as much as you wish.
