    Hello.

    I use 64bit edition of Fedora 12. What is the different in upgrade?

    Thanks for this. The Fedora 13 DVD’s aren’t booting for me on two computers. This gets me underway for 13 nicely, from 12. It takes a smart person to think to post something like this for the benefit of others.

    Hello, I believe you meant rpm –import for the keys, otherwise, great post, thanks :)
