If you do not have the most recent hardware I do not see any principal problem to run FC2 on such hardware. For me FC2 is a stable runner, though kernel 2.6 certainly has still a good road to go. If you can remember, the early 2.4 kernel series versions were not that good too. > >A fresh install is recommended, yes.

Hm, from my point of view a clean fresh install has a better chance to go well than an upgrade. If you do not remote upgrades but using the CDs, then no bigger, unresolvable problems should be expected. Remote online upgrade always are risky. I did it for testing and I was successful. Though it depends how much you customized the previous system. > > > 5.

I think the upcoming FC3 (late October) is a good candidate that SELinux will have enabled. > Devin Alexander -- Alexander Dalloz | Enger, Germany | GPG key 1024D/ED695653 1999-07-13 Fedora GNU/Linux Core 2 (Tettnang) kernel 2.6.8-1.521smp Serendipity 22:51:03 up 13 days, 20:07, load average: 0.17, 0.21, 0.16
