how to update to FC5 (from FC4) from internet?
 
Hi!

I've been using FC4 for quite a long time now, and I'm planning to update to FC5.
How to achieve this, without downloadind the Image files, i.e. updating directly from the internet?

download the fedora-release rpm for fc5, install it and do a "yum upgrade"

polemon 07-18-2006 03:42 PM
Hmm, I downloaded the fedora-release-5-5.noarch.rpm and installed it.
I have an x86_64 system, but yum keeps trying to upgrade everything to the i386 architecture.
Additionally, it throws plenty of errors, stating, that mirrors can not be reached.

Alas, seems like another blank has to be burned (pun intented)

I moved some repos back and forth, and the upgrade process starts.

There isn't a fedora-release rpm for the 64 bit arch??

polemon 07-23-2006 05:27 AM
it is, and that's the one I downloaded...
But I still get those errors.

Any Idea how to work-a-round those?

I tried to do an upgrade from FC4 to FC5 and everything broke. It was easier to restore the FC4 install (I'd created a disk image), back up all my data, config files, etc. and then do a clean install and re-setup the server.

polemon 07-23-2006 06:00 PM
I just read the Fedora Wiki, and they said, it is advised to update with the CDs or the DVD, rather than with yum. In fact, updating with yum is clearly NOT ADVISED, since it will stop the update process as soon as it encounters any problems (see my fail).

I just downloaded the DVD image, and I will try to upgrade from that media.

The result, I will post here.

how to update to FC5 (from FC4) from internet?
 
The answer to the iiimf-qt error is buried in the issue that
this is an upgrade, and not an update;

the answer is at:
mumble mumble
I cannot put the http at the front since I am a newbie,
and the system blocks it.

Here is the relevant Item 2:


2. After the upgrade, remove any iiimf-qt package(s) before running yum
update. If those packages are installed, they will raise a couple of
dependency errors that will cause the yum update to fail:

Error: Missing Dependency: libiiimcf.so.3 is needed by package iiimf-qt
Error: Missing Dependency: libiiimp.so.1 is needed by package iiimf-qt

Today, two weeks after the FC5 ISOs were released, there are 136
packages updates to an "everything" install.
