Deleting repos and then upgrading

G'day all,

I've upgraded to Fedora Core 5 from FC4. It works well except it will not allow any upgrades. I suspect that the FC4 repos are blocking things.

How do I clear the old repos and replace them with new ones?

(In plain english please; I'm no expect).

Regards,
John

I think that you mean updates not upgrades? You just upgraded to Fedora Core 5.

upgrade = move to the new version of Fedora

update = install new updated packages that are available for the current release

What method are you trying to do the upgrades with, yum, or the "RedHat Network (the update manager)?"

I have yet to upgrade to FC5, so I will look at this when I do so this weekend.

You do have an active internet connection established?
