While I agree that it is a complete waste of time to try going from F-8 to F-13 by preupgrade, the obvious solution, it seems to me, is to install F-13 on another partition, leaving the working Fedora in place. Surely virtually everyone nowadays has enough room on their disks for a spare partition to be reserved for a new Fedora version? I don't understand why this route is never suggested. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland -- 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
