Very odd. I went from RH8 to FC2 on one box at the start of the week. It took a bit longer than a fresh install, but then having done a pile of FC1 to FC2 upgrades, I knew what too look for. Other than the usual problem I've had with sound and xfree86, it went like a dream. For the xfree86, I dropped to single user and did rpm -e xfree86 xfree86-devel This gave a pile of dependancies. rpm -e <all of the xf86 stuff> Rebooted to the install disc and did the upgrade. I then checked to see if /etc/X11/xorg.conf had been created and if it hadn't editted XF86Config so that where it referred to XF86, it now referred to xorg Sound was a bit more of a pain, but really, it was just changing sound-card to snd-card in modprobe.conf HTH TTFN Paul -- "Your lives are in the hands of men no smarter than you or I, many of them incompetent boobs.
