It's been over 42 months since I last booted a Fedora installer (to a 5.3 kernel). Upgrading Fedora has worked in excess of 100 times here (15 multiboot PCs with it). On faster machines, allocating as much as an hour for the process is a gross excess. On less weighty installations it probably can take under 10 minutes if you don't include POSTing time that on some machines takes longer than booting an OS.
I will never understand why people are so inclined to restart from scratch with a new install every time. Their systems must be really bad managed to not trust an upgrade. Or may be they have no customization at all to preserve. My personal system was installed with FC3 in 2005 and then continuously upgraded up to currently FC36. (it has even got metamorphosis from i686 to x86_64, something that was considered impossible to do) Regards. -- Roberto Ragusa mail at robertoragusa.it _______________________________________________ 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 Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
