quick answer
if you have the beta 2, make sure youve ran all the updates first then you
can simply do the upgrade or a clean install of the RC1.
i did the upgrade as its easier and kept all my programs etc etc

No, this scenario is not allowed.
And anyway a fresh install is always recommended

Important Information about Windows Vista RC1 . We remind you that RC1 is
pre-release software and you should not run this on production or
mission-critical PCs. Support will be limited to newsgroups, and you may have
to do a clean install to move from this release to the final release of
Windows Vista.
.. You may upgrade an existing installation of Windows Vista Beta 2 or
Windows XP to this release. However you will have to do a clean install if
you want to get back to a previous configuration.
.. Before upgrading from Beta 2 to RC1, please install any Critical Updates
from Windows Update for Beta 2. Go to Start, All Programs, Windows Update,
and click the "Check for Updates" button.

MS is not recommending a clean install.

Contrary to my usual clean installs, I upgraded Pre-RC1 5536 to RC1 5600,
just to see if I could, with no problems at all, took 2 hours and 12
minutes.
