This is part of an OS consolidation project which started some time ago. There were too many Linux-flavours like Debian, Slackware, Fedora, CentOS, RedHat 4, Mandriva... thus making maintenance, support and administration more complicated...
Anyway, this was not the point ;-)
IMHO it's relevant. If you're consolidating stuff, you'd want to put in on something with a long support lifetime. RHEL5 will end its production phase 1 this year. So if this is a new setup, and you're migrating to FR2 anyway, RHEL6 would be a better choice. As to how to migrate, Alan and Bjorn already provide good suggestions. If you still have problems during migration, feel free to ask. -- Fajar
