I've been playing with Scientific Linux on an oldish machine, and now I want to try F16 with xfce -- *not* live, but installed, with the .iso on a DVD. I realize that requires me to install the gnome version and then add xfce. Do I just command "yum install xfce," or is there something more esoteric? In the course of playing with SL, I've put spare copies of various data into it, and of course tweaked all sorts of things, many of them a tad bit tedious; I'd like to preserve them into the F16 install. Is there a way Fedora can treat SL6 as if I were upgrading earlier Fedora install? I see this : $ uname -a Linux Hbsk.localdomain 2.6.32-131.17.1.el6.i686 #1 SMP Wed Oct 5 17:20:08 CDT 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux There's plenty of space for dual-booting. I suppose I could install into free space, boot to it, mount the SL partition, and copy stuff. But that sounds like needless hassle to me, even if I got all of it right. Is there another way?? -- Beartooth Staffwright, Neo-Redneck Not Quite Clueless Power User I have precious (very precious!) little idea where up is. -- 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
