CentOS - Sep 2004 - HOWTO? Upgrade Centos-2 to Centos-3

I've been Googling on this all day, installing GPG Keys, and trying
different yum configurations.  I noticed a similar question in the list a
couple of months ago about going from RHEL to Centos-3, but the answer
wasn't definitive.

Has anyone done this?  Can this be done?  Can it be done with yum?  If so,
how?

When I 'yum update' I get /usr/bin/yum, yummain.main, yummain.py,
clientStuff.py errors, and a "ValueError: unpack list of wrong size"
error.

Would definitely appreciate any direction.

Thanks,
JAB*

I wrote a pretty simple howto for redhat 9 - centos 3.1 a while back.
I know of a few that have gone from 7.3 to centos 3.1, with this
howto, so perhaps it may help in your case. Correct me if I am wrong
but centos 2 is based off or redhat 7.2, so it may work. Of course, i
wouldn't try this on a production box first off:
