      Well, guess I know what I'll be doing with the home lab today. Updates, updates for everything!

            How would you slow packages ?

                Slowpoke, I'm up to 5 of 6 updating. They're all still in process tho, my home lab box is horribly iops constrained.

                    The fifth machine around here is Ubuntu and went to 18.04 a few days ago.

                            I noticed the logo was different on the splash screen, but never looked to see the version.

                            Doesn't matter. I just need it to work.

                              Can't get this upgrade to work. Atleast the reboot process does not work to say the least.
                              so i did all the steps explained on several pages like already explained above this thread from @JaredBusch
                              After dnf -y system-upgrade reboot the system reboots and succeeds the installation i guess? (No errors)
                              Then the system reboots again and the VirtualBox VM window stays black.... just black.. nothing to press or to click..
                              Anyone else has this kind of problem?

                              Edit: I did revert back to Fedora 27 with an old snapshot. That worked. I will take another try, when there is a new virtualbox update. Windows 1803 update crashed my vbox machines today aswell... not a good day to do updates it seems. 😄

                                Did you by chance have virtualbox guest add on installed already? You can try removing it first.

                                  Yes that's it probably. Completely forgot this point. My problem is that i really need them for the shared folder, so i can't risk upgrading and not being able to reinstall the guest additions afterwards. I will just wait (a month?) and try again. Maybe things will arrange themselves, hehe. 😉 Still thanks a lot for the input. 🙂

                                    Fedora 28 now includes virtualbox addon by default.

                                      oh, okay? That's good to know. Maybe i will really try to deinstall the guest additions first and try the upgrade again tomorrow. I will give feedback if that worked. 🙂

                                          Did anyone else run into problems with nginx reverse proxy and selinux when updating to Fedora 28? My reverse proxy broke, and the fix for 27 in @JaredBusch's instructions doesn't work for 28.

                                          I'll be digging into the log files this afternoon, but figured I'd ask and possibly warn everyone first.

                                          I should say, I looked at it enough to verify that it is selinux not allowing nginx to start after the upgrade.

                                            If you're installing Fedora Desktop from scratch (no upgrades), are you installing from NetInstall or Live Image?
