Now I save all files I need and load Fedora (n+1) from DVD. Sure I should have done a rpmyumsxx -1234 /rtter /dodad/honky tonk blah blah -crunch and then figure out why that didn't work! Linux should NOT be a mountain of complexity for those who admire/worship complexity. I have far more than enough complexity in programming subjects. Remember, we are defeating Vista and XP Prof and need to make things simple for newbies. THEN maybe we'll have another 14,000 Munich computer switch to Linux! > fedora-list mailing list > fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx > To unsubscribe: > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list > Guidelines: > http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
