Dear Guys,
I upgraded some old systems before from fedora 4 and fedora 6 to fedora 9 and 10 using the cds, When I booted the cds of fedora 9 and 10 it detected the old installed fedora and offered to upgrade it, It sounds nice, I chose to upgrade and every thing went fine, The old fedora 4 and 6 became 9 and 10.
Hi,
I'm a beginner to Linux. I installed Fedora v.7 a couple months back on a Dell desktop (dual boot with WinXP). I am trying to upgrade to the latest version now and having some problems. I tried to upgrade to Fedora v 10 using yum update, but get the following error: "Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: anaconda-upgrade-install".
Dear Friends,
My notebook and desktop run perfectly on dual systems: Win7 and fedora 17. As I follow the installation procedure suggested by the redhat / earlier fedora system, both my machines have the separated and cleared partitions; for windows, boot, swap and boot partition.
I went to upgrade to Fedora 17 just a few hours ago and went with the following partition setup:
SSD:
A small swap partition
A ext4 partition for root
IDE HDD:
An ext4 partition for /home
Installed worked fine, went to reboot, and the computer froze at the bios.

Hey guys,
Yesterday i helped my cousin install Fedora 17 on his laptop. We created a separate partition for fedora, so he could dual boot with win 7.
We installed 15 first, and were going to use preupgrade to upgrade to F17, however, he decided to stick with f15. So I told him to update through terminal, and here's where we ran into a problem.
Hi everyone, well my problem is this:
I had Fedora 15 installed on my computer and want to upgrade to Fedora 17, but in the middle of the installation process it crashed because of some error, and then click to exit the installator.
But when I decide to restart the computer and try to see if Fedora 15 was still there, it wasn't, and I assume that the Fedora 17 installation erase the files or
I have on machine currently running Fedora 17. When I tried to use pre-upgrade to upgrade to Fedora 17 from Fedora 15 it failed because of space problems. So I installed Fedora 17 from a DVD as a fresh install.
In its current configuration, it has 43 GB available in /, 352 MB in /boot and 141 GB in /home.
Hi all,
I tried to upgrade F16 to F17 with preupgrade, but now I have the following problem:
When I boot my laptop, I see only "Upgrade to Fedora 17 (Beefy Miracle) in the GRUB 1.99 menu.

error: file not found
error: you need to load the kernel first
When I edit the grub commands, I see:
