yes, if you are moving from RHEL4 to CentOS4 then you can just repeat
the same process. basically you dont even need yum, just add the
required up2date repository info in /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources, comment
out the rhn.redhat.com ones, and you can use up2date to upgrade the
machine and install new software like yum.

dont try this with a rhel3 machine and try to move it directly to
centos4 :) that might not go as planned.
