Preupgrade issues F13->F14

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I just upgraded my netbook from F13 to F14 (i386).  Can't say
it went smoothly.  Netbook is a Gateway (by Asus) with n450
and 250G HD.

First, before the preupgrade, updates to moddle were failing.
Preupgrade did not detect this when it did its check so when
it did the upgrade, it failed after a few hours of upgrading.  I
switched to the virtual term, did a chroot /mnt/sysimage
and then rpm -e moddle, followed by a restart of the update
and the update finished.

Second, after preupgrade successfully ran (the second time),
the netbook failed to boot on the new kernel.  It boots fine
on the old kernel (from F13).  I think I need to make a new
initrd (saving that for this weekend).

Other than that, it seems to be working well. BTW, loaded
F14 i386 on the two Compaq netbooks from Best Buy ($200
on black Friday) -- other than the wifi, all worked out of the box.
Got the wifi working using the broadcom RPMs as it seems
to not be in the F14 kernel yet.

Overall, thanks for a GREAT Fedora!

Happy New Year,
