   I just started the same procedure to migrate from fedora core 6 to fedora 8. I had to ‘rm -rf /etc/yum.repos.d/*’ then run:
   rpm -Uvh –nodeps –force http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/8/Everything/i386/os/Packages/fedora-release-8-3.noarch.rpm http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/8/Everything/i386/os/Packages/fedora-release-notes-8.0.0-3.noarch.rpm
