Sure, but the logic I use is simple: If I'm not willing to blow away
the box then I'm not going to try to install something I know nothing
about. Since I need to be productive, without any downtime, (it's my
primary box) I need to ensure I can recover from whatever may happen.

That's where I've been having the problems. They begin with
2.6.9-1.6_FC2 while I'm on FC2. I'm not sure what kernel FC3 brings
with it, but the same problems are there [so I assume it is 2.6.9].
