I have a Fedora 8 server that I want to upgrade to Fedora 10. I
recently did this same task with a workstation and had no problem
upgrading from 8 to 10 using a DVD. Just ran the installer, it detected
the F8 install (on logical volumes over RAID 5) and did the upgrade.
The server is an old machine, so doesn't have a DVD drive. Therefore I
am trying to do an upgrade from a DVD ISO image of F10 mounted on
another server on the network.
I boot the server with an F10 boot disk, choose Install or Upgrade, then
the installer goes to work, downloads stage 2 from the network. The six
disks in the server all run for a while, then the installer tries to do
a clean install. It does not present the option to upgrade.
I am assuming that the installer can't detect the existing
installation/partitions (boot and swap are RAID 1, root is a logical
volume on RAID 5).
Can anyone suggest how to troubleshoot this issue?
