Thank you very much again for the advice. It did not work at first, but after investigation with rescue mode from the install DVD I discovered that the upgrade had not actually completed successfully, and I had a lot of conflicting older packages still on my machine. After a couple of evenings using yum from rescue mode to manually get the packages cleaned up enough that "yum distribution-synchronization" and "package-cleanup --cleandupes" would run without errors, I tried your original advice again, and this time was able to successfully get the system running. I considered just formatting / and installing from scratch, but I have a somewhat complicated networking setup, and had not backed all my config files in /etc, nor backed up my mythtv database, so I had some incentive to get the upgrade working. Thanks to your help I was able to. -- Chris -- 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?
