are what you want. I wouldn't spring for Red Hat unless you've got a
compelling reason, like you want a support contract. I just installed
one upgrade and one fresh install of FC4 and it was pretty much
trouble-free.

Just make sure to run yum update once you've finished installing --
there are a bunch of new pkgs since FC4 was frozen.
