You are the first person I have heard make this claim.  How did you determine 
that yum was not included in FC1?

This does not make very much sense.  

Configurations are text files (httpd.conf, pg_hba.conf, bashrc).  A file is 
going to look the same when you open it in vim regardless of using Fedora, 
RH, SuSE, Mandrake, OpenBSD, FreeBSD, Slackware, Gentoo, Caldera ... and the 
list goes on.  

Transfering configurations is as simple as copying a file from one computer to 
another.  I do it all of the time ... and between completely polar operating 
systems.

Would you care to elaborate on this statement?
