The way some other Unix OSes I've used worked for version upgrades was to require the admin drop to single-user mode first, optionally with network access. RHL/RHEL/Fedora have never had a "single-user with network" mode, but that would be nice to have. Then maybe "yum upgrade" could require (or at least recommend) switching to that mode first. -- Chris Adams <cmad...@hiwaay.net> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
