Re: Fedora 17

Depending on where you are coming from, you might run into a lot of issues with OpenJDK 1.6, Eclipse 3.7 and GCC 4.6 not being present in Fedora 17...apart from that it is absolutely worth the upgrade.

I've both upgraded from Verne -> Beefy via Preupgrade (i686) on a
laptop & a fresh install via Live CD x86_64 Beefy on a Core 2 Duo with
absolutely no problems whatsoever.

Via Live CD, the install is very quick indeed. Minimalist to say the
least :-) The Live CD, which I downloaded after the release date, was
still marked Alpha.

Very happy here. YMMV...

Cheers,

 Phil.
