Re: Safe to reinstall kernel?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



It would appear that it installed some of the items, but not others.
The reinstall would only reinstall packages that were already fully installed.

dnf upgrade 

would probable complete the process

I generally do.
dnf clean all; dnf update -y

To see what all is installed you could
rpm -qa | grep -i kernel

The see what it shows.
