As my current installation is EOL, there are things I would like to know before trying to install F16.
The new lower limit of 1000 for normal user and group IDs is another issue. The current user has IDs 500 and has rather a lot of files that I want to keep. Fedora's documentation says to use a kickstart file to keep 500.
How? If it's documented anywhere, I can't find it.
From what I've read, %post won't work.
IDs from the 500-999 range will already have been allocated. 'Tain't obvious that %pre would work either. If %pre runs before everything else, /etc won't exist yet. -- Michael hennebry@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx "On Monday, I'm gonna have to tell my kindergarten class, whom I teach not to run with scissors, that my fiance ran me through with a broadsword." -- Lily -- 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?
