It's an Acer Aspire E1-731-4699 Intel Pentium 2020M Processor 2.4Ghz dual core. Seemed to be doing just one package at a time. Was a computer science instructor for 36+ years, so had lots of extra stuff loading on machines to show students in various classes. Generally taught 7 different courses each semester. Retired summer of 2017. Did the upgrade from 28 to 29, since once had a problem doing a 2 version upgrade. Except for the time, everything went ok. When still teaching I would do an upgrade on one desktop using dnf, and do a clean install on another. Then would compare the rpm -qa lists to see what new things came in the clean install, and would generally add the to the upgrade list. Would the use the udpcast of my G4L to image to the other 19 machines in my lab. On 20 Jun 2019 at 18:35, ToddAndMargo via users wrote: Subject: Re: Just did an upgrade and it took 12 hours??
