Ive upgraded 1/2 machines, using graphical interface from the "notify"
prompt.
all went smoothly.
Speed of update seems faster,
maybe its the ~3 progress bars updating so smoothly.
new here is the 2nd line below - perhaps the replacing line is obvious, and
suppressible ?

so Ive got some old i686 computers,
electronics recycle day approaches, but before I do that,
I thought Id try to get them working
1st one (toshiba satellite core2 laptop) threw a hard-drive,
clunking noises, then finally falls back to pxe-boot.
I put fedora-30-live on a usb (last one with i686 s

just the other day, I saved 18%, so it does happen semi-regularly
FWIW, I wouldnt mind seeing %saved over the DPRM subset,
not just %saved vs the whole download.

so a couple of weeks ago,
I did a dnf update, and got ~ 19% reduction due to DRPM
that was by far the highest return on the effort Id seen.
previous experience for me was 1-4%.
I should have grabbed a "screenshot" and sent it here.
Whats the "average" experience here ?
are there statistics ?

so I generated my local .ssh/id_rsa before I chose a hostname.
Now that Ive updated hostname, the id ends with jimc@fedora,
which is somehow misleading.
but does it matter otherwise?
as a test, I have added the key w.o alteration to github,
and it works, implying that the hostname is not part of t

so I just upgraded an old Dell Optiplex 760 - Core 2 Duo - 686 class box
Fedora 28 -> 29
and all manner of things went wrong.
I had to fall back to runlevel 2 boot, and fiddled.
switching display manager to lightdm helped,
allowing a graphical boot again.
Resolution is very low, mouse arrow is hu

which means X, not wayland, I guess.
FWIW, this is a vga monitor.
there are some odd resolution switches during boot
and Dell logo gets 4 interle
boot process hangs/stalls on graphical screen with 3 blocks illuminated.
booting as normal, but hitting escape early, will revert screen to a console,
which displays the old-school kernel and systemd startup lines,
until it hits "Starting GNOME Display Manager"
then it hangs.
If I edit boot comma
thank you all for your answers, I'll try to be complete here, but brief
1st, Im not having any troubles - normal ops are fine, sudo dnf update
works, etc.
only oddity is with dual boot - 1st few attempts to boot win10 failed after
installing 24-beta (not an upgrade from f23). But recent attempts
I installed Fc24 beta a month ago on a new laptop
Ive tried upgrading to 24-final, unsure Ive succeeded.

heres what I get now:

I just upgraded my 64bit box to F-16 using preupgrade, and the
graphical login is busted.
It displays the nice bathyscath (deep sea) screen for a second,

Anaconda is telling me I have a dirty partition, and to reboot cleanly,

anaconda is complaining about /dev/sda1, which is the Dell Utility
