Within the next three weeks or so, barring any great surprises, I hope to be putting Fedora 27 onto four PCs, a laptop, and a netbook. IIRC, the netbook, which I haven't used recently, has F24 now; all the others are running 26. I'll do all I can by upgrading, because every time I do a fresh install, it costs me something more than a whole day per machine to do the tweaking I need. (I've been running Fedora since it was RedHat7; so my trifocal fingers and arthritic eyeballs know their jobs IF I get all the tweaks right -- a great boon and a bringer of cyber-survival, since I also keep getting slower and more forgetful....) A correspondent on another list says one used to be able to use Mondo Rescue to grab all the settings on an existing install and clone them onto a new one. That would save me vast tedium. But the Mondo Rescue site lists only rpms for Fedora 23 and before. And either I'm garbling my correspondent's directions, or they don't work any more -- or both. I tried a few variations on "dnf install Mondo-xyzq". I also downloaded a few .rpms from Mondo's repository and ran "rpm -ivh" against them. Both tries failed. Is there a tutorial somewhere? Has Mondo Rescue forked into something with another name? Have the Fedora Gurux and Alpha Plus Technoids come up with a replacement while I wasn't looking?? -- Beartooth Staffwright, Not Quite Clueless Power User Remember I know little (precious little!) of where up is. -- /home/btth/sig/nqc _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
