I received a friendly tip saying that if a fedora installation contains rpms that did not come from the vanilla fedora repository, then the upgrade will indeed hang in "Checking dependencies in packages selected for installation"
So, I checked this disk that would hang - and indeed it does have packages installed from other repositories such as atrpms and frshrpms, ..etc. The disk without such third party rpms upgrades without a hitch. To solve the hang problem, the fedora community released a respin of Fedora 8, called Fedora-Unity-20080204-8-i386-DVD.iso and Fedora-Unity-20080204-8-x86_64-DVD.iso and the torrent is only available at http://linuxtracker.org/index.php?page=torrent-details&id=cfcf169a6a6bfaa6f0368ecc4e6021311e1e78de For x86_64 http://linuxtracker.org/index.php?page=torrent-details&id=8cabc08bd8aaa9399479a7726a79787a447e8a3b For i386 Cheers, JD _______________________________________________ vbox-dev mailing list [email protected] http://vbox.innotek.de/mailman/listinfo/vbox-dev
