You might workaround dependencies by installing a minimal number of
packages or ignore some of the packages in the update by using the
exclude option in yum. man yum and yum.conf for details.
You probably have to remove some of your older kernels from FC4 as well.
If your existing kernel is 2.6.13 something or later, then do an
rpm -qa | grep kernel
Any kernels which are not 2.6.13 or later, rpm -ev the package name
(including -devel).
Otherwise, I got things to upgrade fairly smoothly.
Yes. Forgot this step. kudzu conflicts on anything below 2.6.13. So from
Fedora core 4,
Run yum install kernel. Boot into 2.6.14 and make sure that runs
properly. Remove the older kernel using ( package-cleanup from yum-utils
is useful here) and then follow the steps above. installonlyn yum plugin
installed by default in the current development version only retains the
last 2 kernels. So that helps. I will add all this information to the
testing guide.
