If I had that system my inclination would not be to do an upgrade but to do a clean install of F10. Before doing so I would backup the user areas and any system config files to a safe drive. Then after installing F10 I would yum update the system, and then copy back user areas and add the user lines manually into /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow /etc/group and /etc/gshadow - and then manually go through the system config files and get the various server configs working one at a time. Presumably you have /home or /opt on a separate drive or partition and they need not be touched at all during the install. Also remember that F10 has selinux enabled by default - so it is possible you may need to tweak a few settings - also some things that you may have had set up in FC6 may not work with selinux enabled - you will have the option of setting selinux disabled after the install is complete but it is a good idea to understand enough about it that you can have the system running with selinux for additional protection. Good luck. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Question-about-upgrading-Fedora-%28from-fc6-to-FC10%29-tp23274098p23274951.html Sent from the Fedora List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
