Hope this helps... There are procedures for converting between similar versions of RHEL to CentOS. http://gr33do.com/index.php/2008/07/convert-rhel-5-to-centos-5/ Now, how well this will work for Fedora to CentOS.... well, any programs unique to the Fedora distro won't get updated by yum, since they would not be in the Centos repository. It might be an interesting experiment,
But one that is very unlikely to succeed. RHEL 5/CentOS 5 are based on FC6. The OP said he was running F8. This would be a downgrade in terms of package versions. Because CentOS packages always have higher version numbers than the corresponding RHEL packages, converting from RHEL5 to CentOS is trivial. Downgrading a system without reinstalling is not.
