You're just more likely to hear about them, because when things go right, people are less likely to be asking for help with that. That said, the least-risky way is to back up all of your important data and configurations and do a fresh install. That avoids all of the weirdness that sometimes happens when trying to transform an old system into a current one. -- Matthew Miller <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Fedora Project Leader -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
