If you boot off the Fedora disc then it should give you an option to upgrade Red Hat to Fedora. I'm not sure how well it works.

well upgrding will also help u improving ur performance

i have migrated from RH 9 to FC2 ,i find new only applications there
i used compile my kernel on RH9 and was getting good performace the only difference here is of new applications,not of performance(here too i have get my own kernel working)

so the only thing i could get a fedora core is to boot in from cd again and not upgrading my kernel

hi
this is not the case
u will b upgrading frm 2.4 to 2.6 but if u already ugraded ur kernel while using redhat 9.0 ,then that kernel will be beter from the fedora 2 kernel

also u will get new applications in FC2 like KDE multimedia etc etc
