Re: Confession of error...FC6 install time on old K6

Because I had some difficulty with the full install of Core 6 the question
is what is the likelihood of a successful upgrade straight from Core 3 to
Core 6. So far it isn't looking that good. I booted up the Core 6 DVD
started an upgrade and things stopped at the checking dependencies point.
There was no appearance of the progress bar, after 30 minutes, nor did there
seem to be any activity on he DVD drive.

My old K6 test machine took 128 minutes (2 hours plus) to do an install of FC6

It is probably faster to do a minimal install, and then to do stepwise installs
of the packages you want. It, at least, will *seem* to be faster.
