Did somebody ask how fedup would work out in a straight upgrade from F18
to F19?

I just ran through it.

For future reference: tell people how long it will take.

About ten minutes to prepare...

and then two and a half hours to run the upgrade.

Patience. Patience. Patience.

Make sure the log shows no errors. (And would somebody tell us how to
resolve them?)

Then do a restart--and touch *nothing*. Just watch, and be ready when it
does its own restart.

If your system is clean, the upgrade will succeed.

Once you see something like [1/2654] as it starts upgrading, you quickly
get an idea that it might be lunch time.


Well, good. So I know it didn't take longer than it should have.

It didn't take quite as long to use the fedora-upgrade script that uses yum directly. But that other method (F17->F18) didn't seem to leave things as "clean" as I would have liked. This did--so far.

It's just that, last time, too many people complained the fedup left them high and dry. Not so many complaints this time, so I gave it a shot.
