I think the best thing for me to do, is to build an FC3 machine, and attempt to upgrade it - that may be the best option for me. At least I should get some results, and know that it can be done. I don't want to attempt a jump from FC3 to FC9, only to find that I really f'd up my systems. *excuse the language!* I think I'll have to remove mission critical stuff first, because I don't need the headache of restoring a system that I can't get to! But at least I know that I can try to do an upgrade from FC3 to FC9 - and it should work, at least via media. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
