I think the new kernel uses memory differently compared to the kernels in F14.
One system I just upgraded consistently crashed with checksum failures on the RPM packages during the actual install phase. In the end I found my F14 CD and ran memtest86. Massive (really massive) memory failures on a rather new PC that had passed memtest86 just a few months ago when it was built. It had been used with F14 without any big problems until now. Mostly running armacycles and supertuxcart (it's a living room PC for the kids). Since it had crashed halfway through upgrading X wouldn't start. I logged in through ssh with X tunnelling and re-ran preupgrade after removing the offending memory module. I then had to run package-cleanup --cleandupes I would recommend running memtest86 prior to this upgrade just to be safe. You may have defective memory you didn't know about. if you don't have a cd handy, it should be as simple as installing memtest86+ and then run memtest-setup to add it to the grub menu. -- birger -- 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
