I just finished updating two computers with the final pre-release patches
for FC3-T3
The single process P3 was updated using yum and is running OK.
However, I also updated a dual xeon from FC3-Test1 to FC3-Test3 using the
iso disks,
and then copied all of the rpm files to a cd from the single processor
machine and used them
to update the dual -xeon which is not connected to the network.
The dual xeon update went smoothly until I updated all the xorg X windows
files
to version 6.8.1-10
After that X refused to run and issued a signal 11 error.
I tried both the nvidia driver and the nv driver , but X would not run with
either video drivers.
Finally I used rpm -ivh --force to re-install the xorg version
6.8.1-8
which was released about a week earlier.
After the older version of X was installed , the system started to work
again.
I am upgrading a third single process system now and will find out if it has
the same problem.
