via CDs. I thought that was the only way to get from FC2 to FC3.
Is that not the right way to do it?

I can't because apt-get is broken:
[root at mythtvmbe apt]# apt-get -f install
apt-get: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot
open shared object file: No such file or directory[

That doesn't work. I get:
[root at mythtvmbe apt]# /sbin/new-kernel-pkg --package kernel --mkinitrd
--depmod --install 2.6.11-1.27_FC3
FATAL: Could not open '/boot/System.map-2.6.11-1.27_FC3': No such file
or directory
So, it does not appear as if everything in the upgrade worked. Go
to plan B.
The only items in my /boot directory for System-2.6 are:
System.map-2.6.10-1.770_FC2
System.map-2.6.10-1.771_FC2
System.map-2.6.8-1.521
System.map-2.6.5-1.358

This is plan B.
Thanks for the help.
