B^) If you are attempting to upgrade from Fedora 10 (which is end of life), you'll likely want to use a Fedora 13 boot.iso or DVD. The latest preupgrade packages are not available for EOL'd versions of Fedora. It's possible you could take the latest preupgrade code [1], and rebuild and run it on your Fedora 10 system. But your mileage will vary. Thanks, James [1] http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=6045
