Reinstall instead of Upgrade instructions:
If you are forced to reformat any disks:.
/boot must be on ext4 and one giga!
/boot/efi must be fat16 Efi system partition and 200 mega.
/ and swap; I used lvm 120 giga.
DANGER - iptables does not run automatically anymore. It was changed to iptables-legacy.
You need to convert to nftables and enable and start that service or you are unprotected!
They don't tell you this and you could be running your system for months before you find out!
test:
/bin/bash /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall
iptables-save >/tmp/iptables.dump
iptables-restore-translate -f /tmp/iptables-dump >/etc/nftables/firewall.nft
iptables-save
nft list ruleset
DANGER - php8.0 gets installed
Older Joomla, Craft and WordPress sites will not work - blankscreen!
You ma need to install php 7.4 fromthe remi repo!
DANGER - dnf upgrade overwrites your /etc/resolv.conf with a useless file that blocks sendmail from receiving mail!
/run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf
restore your original /etc/resolv.conf
