Hmm, I upgraded my laptop the other day using the install DVD. It was a bit of a pain because I run mostly KDE which was borked until I did a yum distro-sync and got everything updated. I didn't point to the raw device, but instead I pointed to the mounted media: --device /run/media/[user-name]/Fedora\ 18\ x86_64 as per documentation. The command switch is a bit misleading, since with device you might think to point to /dev/sr0 instead of the mount point. . . . . just my two cents. /mde/ -- 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 Have a question?
