did it similar to how Caolan described it.
only problems I had were a few broken dependencies and a broken ALSA (which I
fixed by switching to OSS (nyeh)).
I haven't really noticed any differences, but then I tend to patch my system
with upgrades every few weeks anyway. Maybe I would notice the difference if
it had been a vanilla FC4 beforehand.
