Can FC5 & FC6 co-exist??
Hi Guys
Let me assure this is not another of 'should i upgrade to FC6 or clean-install' question. I am installing FC6(downloading atm) no doubt, but can i keep my FC5 also? In the same harddisk albeit on different partitions? Because, i installed FC5 in March'06 and the bugger :D never crashed on me nor did i reinstall. I've customised it soo much that i fear if i remove it while installing FC6 and if FC6 starts to give problems, then i'm in a fix as i have to do everything again on FC5. Please note i am not lazy but my internet connection is. I've invested a lot of time and effort on FC5. I just want the things around FC6 to settle down a bit and when its up to speed i can safely remove FC5. What do you guys suggest? Can they co-exist? Or rather its completely OK to go with FC6. Hopefully your suggestions now will help me in deciding the same again next March when FC7 is out :) Thanks |
Sure. You can dual boot them just like with everything else. Resizing your previous FC5 LVM can be a pain though.
Apart from some fixable nVidia problems (you need the 9x driver for compiz/aixgl), I didn't have any problems with FC6. |
