That sort of thing is what live media was invented for :-). Boot off a live USB stick, mount the system disk in there and rename to your hearts content, because nothing is in use any longer. If you have selinux enabled, might need to make the magic file that forces a relabel at boot time so selinux won't barf on the new directory. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
