"It works, except when it doesn't". There can be some fundamental changes in the boot loader, or in the filesystems, that are not necessarily compatible. In particular you won't get the new default filesystems or partitioning as those evolve, and you may encounter brutal regressive bugs in features like SELinux or PAM, or unanticipated changes in the UID's of commonplace users as Fedora evolves. You can also encounter incompatible package naming conventions. And modularity, well modularity is likely to *completely* futz up upgrades. So it's a risk, and one that is difficult to quantify. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
