Fedora 12 Constantine --> Fedora 13 Goodard via preupgrade

Français

La transition de Constantine à Goddard via preupgrade s'est effectué avec succès. Le plus important est de définir la taille de la section /boot à 500 Mo afin de faciliter le processus.

En tout, le système est operationnel sans encombre. De plus, la nouvelle version de gnome-shell est tres fluide et utilisable.
