Boot into run level 3 or 4, then run 'yum update'. There are about 22GB worth of updates to Fedora 7, already. There is a known bug in esound that does that, fixed several months ago.
All I get when I run yum update is this: Loading "installonlyn" plugin Setting up Upgrade Process Error: Cannot open/read repomd.xml file for repository: updates
yum repolist: Loading "installonlyn" plugin repo id repo name status core Fedora Core 6 - i386 enabled extras Fedora Extras 6 - i386 enabled fedora Fedora 6 - i386 enabled updates Fedora 6 - i386 - Updates enabled
Apparently, the upgrade didn't revise the $releasever. Does anyone know where yum picks that up?
What says `rpm -q fedora-release ' ?
Anyway, you can install the fedora-release package version F7 with the following (please, note that is all a single command line):
rpm -Uvh ftp://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/7/Fedora/i386/os/Fedora/fedora-release-7-3.noarch.rpm ftp://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/7/Fedora/i386/os/Fedora/fedora-release-notes-7.0.0-1.noarch.rpm
