Allow the Fedora installer to setup default partitions. There is little reason besides personal preference to choose a custom partitioning scheme for a desktop/laptop used by one person.
Yes, I suppose you're right but I wanted to partition it myself instead of the usual lvm. I will live with my mistakes, hopefully get it right next time.
Can I just clear /var/cache/yum/x86_64/17/updates/packages? I suspect that if I could it should happen without my help?# yum clean packages Please see: $ man yum For a full listing of yum commands. There are many.
I tried several of the things shown under yum clean, packages was one of them, metadata another. I'm still struggling with error messages, probably created by my trying to stop yum early this morning when it did nothing but try new mirrors. I should have stuck with the CTRL+c longer. Pushing the reset button was not the thing to do, I knew that at the time but nothing worked. Thanks.
