As a desktop, it was dual purpose but now will be just a file server.
Is it better to just remove the extra packages manually before the
upgrade or to remove some and upgrade the rest?
It's not clear me what the difference is between these two options. They
sound the same to me.
I don't want to rebuild the whole system from scratch as I have a number
of systems to do that to already.
There is no need to remove the extra packages, but if you're concerned
about them or want the disk space back, then I would remove them before
doing the upgrade. Less packages to download and quicker upgrade time.
If you just don't want the desktop login running or available, then you
could change the default run target to multiuser instead of graphical.

This machine is going to be just a file server for DLNA so doesn't meed
many packages.
Disk space is not an issue so I guess I will just upgrade over the next
couple of days and see what happens. Know I have to get rid of
rpmfusion nvidia driver due to issues.
Thank you.
