you do, it won't work. Go to the fedora pages and get yourself the
tools needed to keep the classic fedora project updating your system
or upgrade to fedora (C3 will be released any day now).


install C3 test3
login as root
you see the red finger blinking
clicking on it invites you to startup the up2date system.

If up2date is indeed closed down since April, then why invite all FC3
users to get in trouble, and possibly to file bug reports in Bugzilla
(like I just did). Is Fedora going to turn into a nightmare because of
zero QA ?


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
FC3 test3

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install FC3 test3
2. see up2date
3. get access to up2date system, alledgedly "has been closed down
since April"

It's not closed down since April. *Red Hat 9* has been end-of-lifed
for a while.
