RE: Fedora 14 on System Z alive and kicking!

[Philip Pinto]

Wow! - great news - I have several systems that I can work form to give it a
try - I was able to upgrade in place from 11 to 12 which really went pretty
well with assistance from this List's posting - would that be possible from
12 to 14?  

If need testers for trying the install from an ISO or image files  I would
be willing to give that a whirl too.. 

Thanks....
