Αναβαθμίζοντας με το FedUp
Απευθείας αναβάθμιση με τον Yum
Αναβαθμίζοντας απευθείας από μια έκδοση σε μια άλλη χρησιμοποιόντας τον yum
, δεν έχει δοκιμαστεί επαρκώς από το Fedora QA και διάφορα προβλήματα που μπορεί να προκείψουν, δεν λαμβάνονται υπόψιν για την έκδοση της διανομής. Στην πράξη λειτουργεί καλά για αρκετούς χρήστες, λόγω των κατευθυντήριων γραμμών που ακολουθεί η συντήρηση και οι εκδόσεις των πακέτων του Fedora σε σχέση με τις αναβαθμίσεις.

Upgrading from a pre-release (Alpha, Beta, or other development snapshot) to the final release
If you are using a pre-release of Fedora, and want to know more about upgrading to the final release, refer to Upgrading from pre-release to final.
Using the DVD to upgrade
For upgrading to all releases up to Fedora 17, the process of using Anaconda installer to upgrade was the recommended and supported method and detailed in the Fedora Installation Guide. However, for best results when migrating from unsupported versions to newer versions, back up your user and configuration data and perform a fresh installation.
Tips
- It's a good idea to have a backup of your system before performing an upgrade. Keeping
/home
in a separate logical volume or partition makes backing up user data easier, because the home partition can be reused when upgrading or reinstalling. This is the default from Fedora 13 onwards.
- Doing a clean installation and then restoring user data from backups may work better for some users. Future releases may include features to assist in this process. Refer to AnacondaWorkItems for more information.
- Make sure you read the Release Notes carefully before attempting an upgrade.
Rawhide
Rawhide is a development version of Fedora that is updated daily. It is suitable for people who are developing or testing Fedora before broad public release.
- To move from Rawhide to a stable release, refer to Upgrading from pre-release to final.
- To move from a stable release to Rawhide, refer to Releases/Rawhide.
