only by compiling that driver for the 8.2 kernel or by using a new kernel
...

a free upgrade to MNF 2 ? Using urpmi. No, I don't think so ... it would
to complicated and source of too many problems ... try to upgrade an 8.2 
distro to 10.0 ... you'll see what I'm talking about ... then add the
specific issues of MNF ... and you'll understand that it's too
complicated.

One could try to backup the firewall configuration file and update on the
new version ... but I haven't really had the time to fully test that ...
there are already some minor issues on the shorewall changed syntax ... 

my 2 cts,
