Im just afraid that its going to cause problems then i am going to be stuck
rebuilding everything with F7 clean install.  If thats the case i would
rather just leave the server alone and wait for F9.  If i do F7 im going to
be in the same situation in 6 months.

Does Fedora ever update the ISO's for a version or do they just leave it
alone?  Seems kind of dumb that they would just leave it alone when some
people cant even install the OS if they moved from Windows.
