Repository question

I found a nice tutorial on how to upgrade to the latest Fedora 15 from Fedora 14. This upgrade will need the Preupgrade package. So you must install preupgrade first to continue. Preupgrade is a upgrade assistant that will help you to easily upgrade your current Fedora 14 to the new Fedora 15. OK lets [...]

Hello, after upgrading fedora I got some problem with permissions, first I recognized that I'm not allowed to change network connections, but I'm also not allowed to install/uninstall with apper, even when I open nightingale there is no sound and a message pops up, that I have no proper rights.

RPM Fusion and Livna.org are common third party package repositories for Fedora. You need them if you want to install media players, codecs and/or DVD playback libraries that are not part of the primary Fedora repository because of assumed issues like distribution licensing or similar.

Thus my question how to enable them in Fedora (>= 17)?

My PC is dual-boot, F16 and Ubuntu 12.04. Although I mainly run Fedora, Ubuntu's grub2 was automatically placed in my MBR when I did the upgrade from Ubuntu 11.10 to 12.04.

I recently ran preupgrade to upgrade from F16 to F17. When I tried to boot anaconda, the only Fedora entry in my grub2 menu was "Upgrade to Fedora 16 (Verne)".

Playing around with a Fedora 9 box and decided to try preupgrade to bring it to Fedora 10.

This is a toy so I don't want to hear about how Fedora 9 or Fedora 10 is EOL. I know it is. Save it for someone else.

I'm running an server with Fedora 10. Is it wise/possible to use preupgrade to upgrade it to the latest version?

I've always been 'afraid' for updating it because of the running services. The last installation took my home network offline for a few days.

Hi there I'm trying to upgrade fedora from 16 to fedora 17 using preupgrade. I've used preupgrade before to go from fedora 14 > 16 with no problems. I'm an experienced user of all types of distros. but this is starting to piss me off a little. :dis: What my prolem is that I have the upgrade packages downloaded but when I restart the option in grub doesn't show up.

I have been happily using, for several months, Fedora 12 on a PC with a crashed Windows XP3 as the other operating system, and have just used preupgrade to download Fedora 16, which now appears as the second entry in my /boot/grub/menu.lst file.

Booting with this as the default entry just hangs up the machine. So, my question is: what do I do now to complete the upgrade?

Hello,

I'm trying to create a git repository using this tutorial: http://kovshenin.com/2011/howto-remo...it-repository/ I'm new both to git and to Fedora and I'm having problems with step 3 with the symbolic links. Basically I can't access them and I get "Permission denied".
