Preupgrade

[bakerboy26]

I just have a questions about preupgrade.
When the final release of Fedora 14 comes out will preupgrade also update packages from rpmfusion?

Also I installed akmod-nvidia from rpmfusion. Would have to uninstall this to be able to upgrade?

Thanks in advance,

Gordy

Yes. It will already do it, if you update to F14-to-be.

I'm not sure about that.

I didn't want to start a new thread for this but has anyone noticed that attempting to upgrade from F13 to F14 x86_64 using PreUpgrade fails miserably?

I've tried updating F13 installations a number of times over the past month, on two separate machines, the most recent attempt being a few minutes ago, and neither has been successful. I realise F14 is not final, but we're only two weeks away and it's a little unsettling.

PreUpgrade successfully downloads the packages, but once I reboot, Anaconda fails to launch. On one box I get a blank screen and on another it gets stuck on "Finding storage devices".

I hope the powers that be plan to test PreUpgrade in the next two weeks.

Well, you know, the devs are not here, so I would like to urge you to issue a bug report. This makes them aware of the problems and they are hopefully able to fix them until the final version gets out.

if you have an NTFS partition on your system, it's a known bug that will be fixed in RC1: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=637319

Thanks Adam. I was just about to submit a bug report and you've saved me the trouble. I'm glad it's already been identified.
