Maybe less trouble than you think, the machine I'm sitting at right now was yum upgraded from fc2->3>4>5>6>7>8 not all that long ago, with little trouble. The yumupgradefaq saved me finding the pitfalls myself. :) I borked it pretty hard trying to yum upgrade from fc8->9 yesterday; some of the packages on a fully up-to-date fc8 system have higher version numbers than the same packages in the fc9 repositories, which made things interesting. At least it is back up and running multi-user now, I just need to figure out what is causing gdm to crash. I'm sure there are some "old" libraries hanging around causing the issue. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] OpenPGP KeyID 0x57C3430B Holder of Past Knowledge CS, O- There is absolutely no substitute for a genuine lack of preparation. _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
