No, In the RC, the default option for Server Setup is going to be "New Installation."

The good news though is that in the email I received, the Windows Home Server Team have confirmed that you will be able to upgrade from the RC to the RTM version, so hopefully only one more re-install!! Actual wording is:
At this point we *can* confidently say that we will support upgrading from the RC to the RTM version.

While you may be able to upgrade from RC1 to the final version, I can say that I most certainly won't be doing so. I would never upgrade from beta to final software without removing the beta as completely as I could first.Monday, June 4, 2007 11:50 PMModerator

There may be a RC2 also, so RC1>RC2>RTM may be the sequence.
Probably not good idea.Thursday, June 7, 2007 7:57 PM -

100% Agree too!
Every Upgrade experience make know and see any old ( any time disturbing also!) TOMBSTONE or WASTE.....
NEW installation is the only good way in my mind!!
And WHS installation is the best automated installation I see since long time!!!!!
