Upgrade from FC6 to F7

Discussion:

Hello,

I am going to upgrade my FC6 boxes to Fedora 7 shortly (downloading the DVDs
right now). Is there a way to add kde-redhat (stable) as a repository in
anaconda at upgrade time? (I think that this is possible with livna).

In particular, I am wondering which URL to use. In my kde.repo file, I have
these entries enabled:
--
mirrorlist=http://apt.kde-redhat.org/apt/kde-redhat/fedora/mirrors-stable
mirrorlist=http://apt.kde-redhat.org/apt/kde-redhat/all/stable/mirrors
--

Shall I just use the two URLs in anaconda? Or should I choose a specific
mirror?

Thanks for any help.

*SHOULD* work, I know we add the 'fedora-updates' repo for our kickstart
installs, not sure if mirrorlists work tho.

That said, shouldn't be much need to enable kde-redhat at
install/upgrade time, since our f7 repos are most empty, since most of
my f7+ work is contributed directly into fedora now.

Well, that's very good news!
I will probably not bother then :-)

Thanks Rex.

On my box, running FC6, there is a mirrorlist for updates too.

As I performed an upgrade, I did not get the chance to give URLs, it looks
like it's done only for a first install. The yum update after the install
went fine. Surprisingly, there was no problem with livna either...

Anyway, the laptop is done now and I will be upgrading the workstation soon.
