Are you saying that skipping one release is supported? (that is, is it supposed to work?) Because I have a couple of FC5 servers, and I could upgrade through the odd releases 5->7->9->11. It is not an easy decision. - try to upgrade directly to F11? (even if something has to be fixed manually) - try the 5,7,9,11 upgrade? (it will take a lot of time) - leave them at FC5 (they have been handling terabytes of data for years with zero issues, so why not? security is not a concern as it is a local and trusted environment) There is only one thing pushing me to upgrade: SMART is not supported by FC5 on the SATA controllers I have and these machines are *file servers*. -- Roberto Ragusa mail at robertoragusa.it -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
