To upgrade a Fedora 11 system to a newer version of Fedora, you can use the preupgrade
tool. The preupgrade
tool is a utility that allows you to upgrade your system to the next available version of Fedora over the network.
It is important to note that upgrading a system from one major release to another (e.g., from Fedora 11 to a newer version of Fedora) can be a risky process, and it is important to follow the instructions carefully to avoid causing any damage to your system. It is also a good idea to back up your important data before proceeding with the upgrade.
Here are the steps to upgrade a Fedora 11 system using the preupgrade
tool:
Open a terminal window and log in to the system as the root user.
Run the following command to update the package manager's list of available packages:
yum update
preupgrade
package:yum install preupgrade
preupgrade
tool:preupgrade
This will start the preupgrade
tool and guide you through the steps to upgrade your system to the next available version of Fedora. Follow the prompts to complete the upgrade process.
Once the upgrade process is complete, you will need to reboot the system in order for the changes to take effect. To reboot the system, run the following command:
reboot

tool, you can consult the documentation or visit the Fedora website.
