I concentrated on testing Gnome, but xfs and mate are on my testing schedule for the coming days. I have fewer problems with Fedora 27-beta than with Fedora 26 I have tested with lvm, ext4, and / with btrfs and /home with ext4. I have tested it with btrfs file system (not recommended for any Fedora Gnome 3.24 - 3.26.1) For the past month, I have been testing, shaking out and enjoying I have preserved /home and some /usr/local/* files. When your system restarts after the upgrade, you’ll be running the Fedora 27 Beta. Follow the prompts to reboot and install the upgrade, which will take some time. Use the Download Now button to download the upgrade data for Fedora 27 Beta. After a short time, the Software app retrieves fresh information about the prerelease and advertises it to you. One is to kill the service and restart it manually: However, you can force it to do this in several ways. Normally you have to wait for the Software service to refresh its information. This setting lets the Software application detect the availability of a prerelease, in this case Fedora 27 Beta. Gsettings set show-upgrade-prerelease true Open a Terminal and type the following command: You don’t need to do anything to make this happen. Your system will then automatically follow the Fedora 27 stable release. This will shut off the updates-testing stream. When the Beta goes to Final, you’ll receive an update to the fedora-release package.
If you move to the Beta, you’ll receive updates for testing during the prerelease period. Don’t perform this operation unless you have time to wait for it to finish. Upgrading the system also requires a reboot, and takes some time to install the updated packages. It will take some time, based on your connection speed. Second, remember this process downloads all the update data over your internet connection.
While there are no problems currently known that would risk your data, it’s a good idea to have a recent backup for safety.
Before you upgrade, here are some things to keep in mind.įirst, back up your user data. However, it works well for many users, especially those who are technically skilled. That means some features are still being tuned up before the final release. The Fedora 27 Beta is still just what it says it is: a beta. Then you can try out some of the new features early. If you’re running Fedora Workstation, it’s easy to upgrade to the Beta release. In case you missed the news, Fedora 27 Beta was released last week.
Upgrade Fedora Workstation to Fedora 27 Beta The beta is so stable, and so clean (except for server), that as a desktop and upgrade to Fedora 26, it is clean
