There aren't separate upgrades from full versions.  It's all compiled into
the
same software. When you start the installer from CD, you're are asked
whether
you want to Install a new Linux box, or Upgrade. Simply choose upgrade an
existing
Red Hat Linux machine.

You can obtain the software at your local software store, or from any
on-line retailer
such as LinuxMall.com or LinuxCentral.com. I'd recommend getting a CD
instead of
downloading the two CDs worth of data (unless you have a burner, and a
really fast
Internet Connection).
