CentOS has "minor upgrades" at more or less the same frequency that Fedora has "major upgrades", so to the user they are more or less the same. 2. I don't recall that I had any problems upgrading from CentOS 5 to 6. I followed the simple advice given, and it worked exactly as stated. 3. I looked at the two document mentioned about upgrading Fedora: <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading_Fedora_using_yum#Upgrading_Fedora_using_yum_directly>, <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedUp#How_Can_I_Upgrade_My_System_with_FedUp.3F> I found both of them rather confusing, and difficult to follow. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College Dublin -- 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?
