i have not experienced any headaches with fedora 8.At least nothing major, a couple of
minor
issues overall but nothing that shut me down, just minor annoyances really. Perhaps my
experience
is unique? A dozen disc's? Try one disc. Yeah one disc is all i needed to burn.

Thanks and it is easier said than done as far a updating the whole
operating system. I don't have
but the one computer and I can't be offline for that long of a time. I
also am having major issues
with my cd burner so burning new cds is out of the question and most of
my spare blanks went
into getting fc6 burned. I knew I was going to get upgrade or get lost.
I really wish there was an
easy way to upgrade without wasting a few dozen disc's again. I read
somewhere it can be done
so now need to find out how.
I have run fedora for years and could usually find the answers to issues
on my own. I finally get
to the point of fustration that I decided to join this list in hopes of
getting some answers. You would
think that it being an older version someone would have an answer or at
least a few links. This has
sure taught me a lesson about trying to get help anywhere. As usual left
on your own no matter what.
and to think I have talked ppl into getting and running fedora on their
computers and they usually come
to me for answers and I can usually find them if I don't already know
it. The one time I seemed to get
stumped and I am told upgrade. Sounds to me like fc8 is a headache and I
don't need my computer down
or not able to connect to my servers online
Thanks
Don
