Possible but there is so much stuff that has changed (and 6.x has no
updates any more for security fixes).

I do a series of CD updates from 6.2 to 7.3, then 7.3 to 9 then 9 to
Fedora Core 2, and FC2 to FC3 - If I had to do it that way. But really
it'll be quicker to back it up reinstall and restore
users/config/filestore
