F17 upgrade with yum
Since I'm stick in F17 limbo due to the stupid 'dirty filesystem' bug in the normal upgrade process, it looks like I'm going to have to do an upgrade via yum. Who's done it and what were your experiences? I am planning to do mine on an Samsung netbook that's not quite a year old. It's got plenty of RAM and drive space and it runs F16 really well. -- Mark Haney Software Developer/Consultant AB Emblem ma...@abemblem.com Linux marius.homelinux 3.4.6-1.fc16.x86_64 GNU/Linux -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
