I just keep two partitions (Logical Volumes actually)--one for Fedora N and one for Fedora N+1. I always do a fresh install, formatting the partition from the older install. This has the advantage of providing a backup in case the new Fedora doesn't work so well. Eventually, when updates to the new Fedora fix the most annoying bugs, I switch to using it full time. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
