Dear Folks, I'll share my experience with upgrading four (non-virtual) machines from Fedora 18 to Fedora 19. In each case, I used fedup-0.7.3-4.fc18.noarch from updates-testing, performing a network upgrade. None of the upgrades were hampered by lack of disk space. The first two went beautifully, flawlessly, and fairly rapidly. After the success of my home machine, I upgraded my work machine from home, and when I came to work on Monday morning it worked perfectly well for me; I was a very happy camper! The third machine is a single core, old ASUS 1000e Eee PC; the downloading appeared to stall after several hours. I restarted fedup-cli --network 19 and it finished after a while longer, and upgraded just fine after the reboot. The fourth machine through, has taken the most time. It's a Lenovo x121e, the only one of the three that was a fresh install of F18. The fedup-cli download process went for more than 40 hours before I interrupted it. fedup-cli was showing all the packages repeatedly, cycling from the beginning of the alphabet after finishing the z packages. Next to each package was written "0B", presumably because it had already been downloaded. I interrupted the process twice and restarted after that initial long wait, and finally it finished this morning, and the upgrade after the reboot went smoothly and rapidly with the solid state disk. On Fedora 19, I am happy with the state that it is in now, and find it works well for me. -- Nick Urbanik http://nicku.org nicku@xxxxxxxxx GPG: 7FFA CDC7 5A77 0558 DC7A 790A 16DF EC5B BB9D 2C24 ID: BB9D2C24 -- 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?
