If only yum worked after booting from a rescue DVD. I tried updating using yum in stages, (yumex actually using networkmanager). Unfortunately this eventually crippled networkmanager, and inittab 5 boot. The later I got round by creating a desktop file to and started gui from inittab 3, (to KDE). I have updated using this method from Fedora 10 -> 14 successfully. As Fedora 8 -> 10 was KDE 3 -> 4 I did a fresh install. Currently akmod builds fail on boot, and it eventually hangs. I've tried a variety of boot options to no avail. -- 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
