I followed this guide to do an update from rh9 -> fc1 -> fc2 -> fc3. http://www.brandonhutchinson.com/Upgrading_Red_Hat_Linux_with_yum.html It took a little bit more forced removal and upgrading of some rpms (most of the problematic rpms came from the atrpms repository though) than is mentioned in the guide. When I attempted fc3 -> fc4 though, yum just wouldn't work (would sit there forever attempting to work out dependancies). So I opted for apt instead and it went through well once I removed all packages from atrpms. Also, one thing to look out for it moving from fc1 -> fc2 is that you have to do some special upgrading to take into account of upgrading from lvm1 to lvm2. - -- dave. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDiuj9hPPdWeHRgaoRAvl7AJ0cR8GCBHXHB8okfrUCVnG19YuiWwCghFT7 srGrFgBDOACEit3f9c9VSQs= =50De -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
