During the last major version change (4 to 5), even through it was 
officially "unsupported" I was able to just use the installer to do the 
upgrade.

I would make a list of the running apps on a server. I would run the 
CentOS 5 installer on a host and it would happily "upgrade" the host.

However, my next step would be to go through and manually check each 
application since the upgrade may or may not have been handled 
automatically. The installer would have backed up the old config files. 
For new versions of applications I had to figure out how to get the new 
ones running.

I have a CentOS 5 server I'm going to try this process on.
