Do NOT expect a beta system to be upgradable in the future. AFAIK
this has never been supported by RH for earlier releases (and even
if it would be supported, I personally would not want to do that).
I know about the non-supported. But in my experience it works fine.
I did one (using yum, not up2date) to go from redhat 9 to RHEL 3,
without a problem.
I would not do it for a really essential server, but for a 'test
machine' it is good enough. Our company plan is to go from RHEL 3 to 5
next year for all systems, and early experience with RHEL 5 could be an
advantage. Just for one test server, after all. In the worst case we can
always do a fresh install on it when the time comes.
