It seems to have been recently updated: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=6045 It hasn't made updates-testing yet, but can downloaded straight from koji. The idea was to: - download only the required rpms to complete the upgrade {often lots less than a full DVD}. - download the boot/installer part - configure the boot/installer part as a grub selection When you are ready, you reboot, and the normal anaconda installer boots, knows it's an upgrade and performs the upgrade {with required packages already downloaded}. I tried earlier versions, and they succeeded OK. DaveT. _______________________________________________ Yum mailing list Yum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.baseurl.org/mailman/listinfo/yum
