Hi, I just did a clean install of Fedora 8 and was wondering what the
best way to update it is? Do I use yum update or click the balloon in
the taskbar, or is there another way?
easiest:
The balloon, will run pup {package updater}. This uses yum libraries to
determine availability of updates, then after confirmation, downloads
and installs them.
cli:
yum update
y
hard:
download packages, then rpm -Uvh them by hand.
auto: there is a way to have the system check on a schedule and
autoinstall updates detected.
