Is there a dnf equivalent? How/Where do I get it??
AFAIK yum upgrade and yum update have been the same for a very long time. In any case, fedup is no longer recommended and dnf is now the preferred option both for installation and regular updates. I've been using it for a year or so without problems, including the last two Fedora release upgrades. I don't think dnf and yumex talk to each other much so I never use the latter. I'm a little unclear on what your exact problem is. The Fedora page has multiple download options, not just Live media. I haven't actually used a Live download in several years. poc -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
