I would compare preupgrade with other ways of installing Fedora. I don't experience any long pauses with any other of the several methods I have used (PXEboot, USBstick, hard disk install, etc). All seem to keep me quite well informed about what is going on. Is there some reason why preupgrade should be different? -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
