I know we are a few days away from release. But, should an F18 system be fedup'able now using the command fedup-cli --network 19 ?
On the whole, testing so far indicates yes, but of course upgrades are always a bit varied.
I don't know if this has changed yet, but when we were testing RC3, just using the above command would use the upgrade.img from Beta. You had to use a couple of special parameters to get the Final one. Both generally seem to work, though. This will change whenever the redirects fedup uses to find stuff get changed.
I ask since I tried it and while things seemed to go well I was left with a couple of problems. 1. No F19 kernel installed. Fixed by "yum distro-sync" after needing to erase and then re-install firefox.
Er, firefox and the kernel would appear to be different issues. The kernel one I know about: it's simply that since F19 has been frozen for so long, F18 has a newer kernel in stable. The latest F19 kernels are still only in updates-testing. When the 0-day updates push happens, this will be resolved.
2. On boot, I get the messages.... about themes not being found..... Still boots fine, but annoying to see.
That's https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=975800 . It was supposed to be fixed by grub2 -22 but somehow it isn't. 'yum install grub2-starfield-theme' will give you the theme, if you want it. If you'd rather have the F19 default of just console mode with no theme, add a line:
GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT="console" to /etc/default/grub and do grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg . -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
