Agreed -- the upgrade from FC1 to FC4 will not be worth the pain even if you can get it working (the fact that you can't makes it sound like your installation has problems anyway...) And when/if you re-install, put your data-bearing filesystems (like /home) in a different partition -- it makes re-installing much, MUCH less painful! -- Ben Steeves _ bcs@xxxxxxxxxx The ASCII ribbon campaign ( ) ben.steeves@xxxxxxxxx against HTML e-mail X GPG ID: 0xB3EBF1D9 http://www.metacon.ca/bcs / \ Yahoo Messenger: ben_steeves
