Upgrade Mechanisms

In one of the offsite reviews I read the author mentioned a Network Updater ISO, is that an option on the standard Disk 1? I haven't been able to find an ISO image that is as small at this reviewer was saying, like 1/10 the size of the standard installer.

Also, I *know* it's not recommended, but I've done it from FC1->2, 2->3 and 3->4 on several machines. Does anyone have any success stories of upgrading via yum?

My bad, I was only looking on the torrents for the boot iso. Needless to say, I found it on the normal mirrors.

Still looking for success stories on the yum upgrade. Looks like some of my 3rd party repos made it impossible for me to use that method on my test box.
