====know how to force a reinstall of a kernel====

:yum reinstall kernel isn't doing anything
 +
:you need to re-run the scriptlets
 +
:this is not done with "yum reinstall"
 +
; "rpm -q --scripts kernel-version-release" would tell you what to rerun

===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"
