Upon reboot after the upgrade, I got presented with GRUB's "selected item cannot fit into memory". OK, probably some kind of a BIOS/HW issue which I latter solved by telling GRUB "uppermem 2000000" (this box has 2.5 GB or RAM), which made GRUB sane again. In the meantime, booted from the rescue CD, got my NIC working and ran "yum --exclude=orca update" to get myself synced with the development tree. First, rpm hung, so I had to remove /var/lib/rpm/__db* files. No worries, rpm --rebuilddb eventually fixed this. Then, on the second try of "yum --exclude=orca update", a segfault happened to yum (actually, probably python), which then left my RPM database in "duplicate" state. Any attempt to run anything after that would cause SELinux to go nuts (due to SELinux related packages that were out of sync, most likely) and eventually the kernel panicked (even after the reboot). All right, the selinux=0 boot option eventually worked around that and I got my updates done. Finally, I removed the duplicate RPMs by applying commands based on this page: https://lists.dulug.duke.edu/pipermail/yum/2004-November/005612.html Of course, because this is a multi arch machine (there are x86_64, i386, i686 and noarch packages present), one has to run: rpm -qa --qf '%{NAME}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}.%{ARCH}\n' Instead of the generic rpm -qa in order to find real, per-arch duplicates. Anyhow, just letting the list know that upgrading an x86_64 system from FC5 to FC6T3 and eventually Rawhide can still be a bit of fun. -- Bojan -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
