I've upgraded three machines from FC2 to FC3 using apt-get now, with no
major trouble. Two were 32 bit Intel, one 64 bit AMD.
Here's the procedure:
1. /etc/apt/apt.conf
2. Edit /etc/apt/sources.list to contain the FC3 mirrors. I recommend
1. Ensure the RPM ordering option is set in apt.conf. You could do:
echo 'RPM::Order "true";' >>
2. you only include the official 'core' and 'updates' feeds for the
initial upgrade, and then add the others in once that is
working. Feel free to experiment though.
3.
