Hi All, I was wondering if someone might be able to help me with this easier (?) upgrade solution between FC6 and FC7. I am wanting to do a fresh-install of FC7 on my notebook but don't really want to go to the hassle of having to remember all of the RPM and additional packages I have installed while using FC6. I was thinking I could possibly do the following to write my rpm database to a file: rpm -qa > rpm-database-file Then, once having loaded FC7 I could possibly do the "cmp" or "diff" commands between the rpm-database-file-FC6 and rpm-database-file-FC7. Then, having the differences of the two files (which correlates to the additional files installed while using FC6), is it possible to "import" this list into yum. I was thinking (but am not really sure whether it is practically possible: yum -y < rpm-differences-database-file Was wondering if someone might either be able to shed some light on this for me or possible provide an alternate option they've been using? Thanks for your help. All the best. Cheers, Tony Crouch _______________________________________________ Yum mailing list Yum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.dulug.duke.edu/mailman/listinfo/yum
