There are reasons for running old versions, but but only a few of us have a good one.
there are NO REASONS for Fedora if you need LTS because you have reasons you use the wrong distribution
I stopped caring after not getting a response, and
follow this thread now for amusement, watching sensible people not only beat a dead horse, but drag the carcass through the streets.
Absolutely. Yesterday's updates (I presume) somehow b0rk my desktop, running F 17; even rebooting into an older kernel didn't get things back. (No, this isn't an attempt to hijack the thread; it's just background for what follows.) The boot process never completes, but when disk activity stops, I can get to an alternate TTY and log in; sometimes, but not always, the network's up. (I'm a tad suspicious of my NIC, but again, that's a side issue.)
I've decided that the best thing to do is to reinstall Fedora
and why did you not
- login after press CTRL+ALT+F3 as root
He did that, unless you read "get an alternate TTY" to mean something else.
- type "cat /var/log/yum.log"
- yum downgrade "package1 package2 package3"
