Upgrade to Fedora 30
-
Fedora 30 is officially out and it is time to update your systems! Easiest to become root first with sudo -i su or however you do it on your system. Then...
From the command line:
dnf upgrade -y && dnf upgrade --refresh -y && dnf install dnf-plugin-system-upgrade -y && dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=30 && dnf system-upgrade rebootWarning, running the above command will take quite some time and will automatically reboot your computer when it is done.
Note, so far on workstations I keep finding that Pix is having issues. Best to remove it before starting if you want to solve that problem:
dnf remove pix -y -

I don’t know why you always insist on this one liner junk
dnf upgrade -y --refresh dnf install -y dnf-plugin-system-upgrade dnf system-upgrade download -y --releasever=30 dnf system-upgrade -y reboot -
@JaredBusch because why would someone want to sit through each line, and because in the real world, I want to grab it and upgrade over and over again.
The real question is, why don't you want a one liner for a single task.

Because it is not a single task. That is 4 tasks.
Maybe 3 if you say the last two have to go together.
And especially on release day, things go wrong because dependencies are often missing.

Yeah, but it just stops either way if something is wrong. I'm using the one liner and even with that issue, it works fine.

You obviously don't realize that you have to sit through it all anyway. Because you didn't use the
-yswitch anywhere. -

For an entire OS plus desktop experiences? I don't think that is bad.

My Inspiron
Booting to rescue mode I see my file system
-
First server update successful.
-
/boot/grub2 shows grubenv is a linked folder to /boot/edit/EFI/fedora/grubenv
But there is no folder /boot/efi/EFI
There is no grub conf file anywhere I can find.
-
Tried to tell grub to try again. Nope
-
rebooted again and it booted up.
WTF
I am not running windows here... I expect logical reasons.
