If you used preupgrade to move from f15 to f16, it's probably a bug. If you used yum to do so, I'm not sure that that is an "approved" method of upgrading...one does so at their own risk. > If there's supposed to be one, if so, how can I generate one?

Something like: $ su - # yumdownloader kernel # rpm -ivh --force kernel.package.file.name.rpm You don't need to re-install grub, but you should double-check grub.conf before rebooting to the new kernel. Also, I do believe f16 includes a move to grub2 -- at least, the tools are installed after I ran preupgrade & upgraded. But my system was left still using grub. That's not such a bad thing, since the grub2.conf syntax has completely changed, making us all grub noobs again. There's also a wiki page somewhere that talks about post-upgrade cleanups one should perform to make sure old packages are thoroughly removed...ask in #fedora about that, or maybe someone will post the link. -Scott -- 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 Have a question?
