It seems to be working. Stay tuned. PC #4, my oldest and slowest, is now running F12! Gnat in ointment: I could swear I told it to upgrade existing (and got suspicious when it let me "customize now"), but it didn't. However, that machine and all it had were expendable. What's more, that same DVD-RW, now in my Thinkpad T42, is installing F12 again. It also just offered me the customization choice -- and wouldn't let me go back, except by terminating the install; but again, its data was expendable. Meanwhile, preupgrade still fails on PC #2 and #3 (and I have yet to try on #1 or the T30 Thinkpad), and on the EeePC running Omega. I'll try again, probably tomorrow (It's Thanksgiving here, and I'm the cook.), and report further. -- Beartooth Staffwright, Neo-Redneck Not Quite Clueless Power User I have precious (very precious!) little idea where up is. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
