I see.....well what about if I wanted to create some form of script or file that would automate as MUCH of it as possible? In other words I would download the fedup tool..and then somehow...."add" my custom command to make it less reliant on my input, (auto-partition, auto formatting, etc.) I'm assuming I'd have to use some programming language that could do that.....and bear in mind....I'm just "thiniing out loud"...not refuting you on any of the facts you've stated or points you've made...<br>

the yum-dist-upgrade is NOT for beginners and if<br>
you read the wiki-page you see that there are<br>
often enough steps you CAN NOT automate<br>

UsrMove as example<br>

and the people who use yum for dist-upgrades are using<br>
it BECAUSE it is not a automated blackbox<br>
