the Subject: yum update
to recover try:
1: boot from dvd\bootcd.
rescue installed system
when ready:
yum --releasever=15 distro-sync --skip-broken
If only yum worked after booting from a rescue DVD.
I tried updating using yum in stages, (yumex actually using
networkmanager). Unfortunately this eventually crippled networkmanager,
and inittab 5 boot. The later I got round by creating a desktop file to
and started gui from inittab 3, (to KDE).
I have updated using this method from Fedora 10 -> 14 successfully. As
Fedora 8 -> 10 was KDE 3 -> 4 I did a fresh install.
Currently akmod builds fail on boot, and it eventually hangs. I've tried
a variety of boot options to no avail.
