I installed from a DVD. In the past the DVD has always offered me the chance to upgrade, which didn't happen this time. This didn't bother me, since upgrades have never worked properly, so I installed fresh. My uid's and gid's were changed automatically as part of the installation process. Maybe I should have used preupgrade, but I was suspicious since, as I wrote, upgrades have generally worked right. jon -- 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
