I usually just burn the boot.iso if I bother to burn anything. You can boot into rescue mode from that anyway. Mostly I don't bother with even the boot.iso -- I just dump the vmlinux and ramdisk.image.gz files into /boot and configure yaboot to boot them. You can do entirely unattended upgrades this way if you're brave enough -- make the installer kernel+initrd the default option in yaboot or grub, with sufficient command line arguments so that it doesn't ask for language, keyboard, network details etc. when it starts. And use VNC, of course. When it's finished installing, it'll reboot into the newly-upgraded system. I have to admit that while I've done this as a test on a machine under the stairs and it's been fine, I've never actually done it for real on a remote machine where I couldn't have got at it if there _had_ been a problem. I usually wimp out and just upgrade those with yum without the downtime :) -- dwmw2 -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
