Well the normal way to do this would be to use a yum update with --enablerepo= set to the appropriate name (there should be one in your repo files, but mine have been changed so i don't know the exact name). Don't use the -y option, so you can see what all is going to be upgraded before you start the upgrade. Sometimes not much is needed for a kernel, but this time there might be a lot. > I guess your second comment regarding boot.iso would be if you wanted to > move a running f12 system onto rawhide or install rawhide from the boot.iso? > Or did you mean if you installed fedora-release-13-0.6.noarch.rpm within a > running f12 system then the repos would point to f13?

Maybe you just were interested in cherry picking packages. In which case you don't care about the boot iso and don't want to install the f13 version of fedora-release. You want to carefully use enablerepo. You should also be comfortable downgrading packages and probably doing rescue recover in case there ends up being a more serious problem. -- 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
