Why Fedora Core?  The upgrade rate of the kernels is really high and
it is impossible for the OpenAFS community to keep up with them.
Unless you plan to not have an OpenAFS client kernel module installed
on the machine, I would not use Fedora Core as the platform for a
server.  Use a distribution that updates Linux kernels at a much slower 
rate.

There are no data format changes from 1.2.8 to 1.4.7 so the upgrade
is an in place binary replacement.
