CentOS - Jan 2005 - upgrade RH9?

Can you upgrade RH9 to Centos, or do you have to do a complete install?

Is there an iso with a .ks file on it to do a remote install?

I've done it several times remotely.

Download and install the centos-release RPM and the yum RPM from a Centos
mirror.

You'll also want to:

rpm --import http://mirror.caosity.org/centos-3/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-3

Then run 'yum update'  

You will need to remove a few RPM's to take care of some dependency issues,
but they are trivial.

I'm sure its possible to upgrade via ISO, i've not tried but i've
done
many a box via yum. Here's some further reading:
