===Upgrading f20 installs with yum to f21=== | |||
*Dennis Gilmore 09/24/2024 IRC | |||
"I have updated a few machines by running "yum --releasever=21 install | |||
fedora-release" then "yum distro-sync" and not had any issues. As I | |||
understand this thread it is soley about what to do in the case of | |||
using fedup only. in which case we need to setup some things in | |||
mirrormanager and do some testing and see what happens. note that we | |||
may not be able to use the fedora-install-21 prefix as the install | |||
trees all have a prefix already assigned" | |||
