Since I know the usernames, passwords and initial dbase name it could be as simple as re-typing them. I'll try to find some time and rerun my install just to test this. It could be a lifesaver for a future upgrade. Who knows... perhaps there is a yum package in some repo to add tabs. The manual method is just not efficient compared to installing from source. BTW, thanks for that link to the manual upgrade. ~af -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
