Restoring user's passwords after RH 5.2 -> RH 6.1 refit

How can I restore all my user's passwords from a RH 5.2 system, to a new RH
6.1 system I am preparing? Both are running shadow passwords.

1. Upgrade RH 5.2 -> RH 6.1

Hi,

I'm trying to upgrade an older system (no bootable CDROM, hda=240 MB
IDE) from RH 5.2 to RH 6.1. I've created an installation diskette which
works OK, but when I boot from it I get the massage:
CRC errorVFS: Cannot open root device 08:32
kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 08:32
Can somebody give an explanation?

Thanks,

Huub
