I had no notable problems. I made a backup first. Well, actually I made a copy of the FC3 partition, got that working, and upgraded the copy, and I also made a backup (using tar). The two FC3's shared a /boot partition. The installer removed all the old kernels and grub stanzas, making the old FC3 unbootable. I restored them from my backup and all was well. ____________________________________________________________________ TonyN.:' <mailto:tonynelson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> ' <http://www.georgeanelson.com/>
