Can I smoothly migrate to Rocky 8 using script migrate2rocky.sh

Hello. migrate2rocky.sh is for any enterprise linux 8 to rocky linux 8 and migrate2rocky9.sh is for 9. The readme briefly touches on this. These scripts do not perform upgrades.

If you are wanting to go to Rocky Linux 8, you are recommended to install a new system and migrate your data that way. You can also use a tool called "ELevate" but we do not formally support it.
