FC5

I am sitting currently at an airport and waiting for my flight back home again.
My flight will leave in about two hours and it will take over 18 hours until I
am finally back home again.
I am updating Nexuiz in Fedora Extras to the latest version and I am also
doing an upgrade of our mirror server
from Fedora Core 4 to Fedora Core 5. Works great; the only thing not FC5 is the
kernel and this will only change with a reboot and me standing in front of it
- so this will probably happen in one or two weeks. I am very happy about the
new apache version which makes it possible to serve the DVD isos via http.

I did the upgrade using yum (only the first few packages did I
upgrade directly with rpm -Uhv) and it worked again without much
difficulties. I think I never really did an upgrade using the installer but
always yum or only rpm. The initial installation from this
server has been Red Hat Linux 9 and since that time it has never seen anaconda again.
