I did -- he said that it was my responsibility to upgrade the virtual machine. The service they would provide would only be a reinstall of the image of Fedora 16. The bottom line is that I'm give a virtual box and 5 static ips, and all maintenance is my responsibility.

Sorry if this is the wrong forum -- if it is, please direct me to the right one.

I rent a virtual personal server in another city that runs Fedora 16. I want to upgrade it to 17. I did the yum-based preupgrade and such, but am stuck. The instructions I read said to reboot and then choose upgrade at the boot screen.

Since this is a network machine that has no boot screen, I need to tell the box to upgrade in some other way.

Is there a way to to a yum upgrade over the network without seeing a boot screen?

Thanks!

Since you rent this, it's not yours to upgrade. Consult the owner of the machine!
