While Fedora somewhat recently made system upgrades possible through the GUI, it didn't work when I gave it a go. But I've been a Fedora user since Fedora 32, so I tend to prefer the terminal anyhow. Here are the terminal commands to upgrade your system if the GUI acts up for you:
• sudo dnf update --refresh
(Reboot if drivers are updated!)
• sudo dnf upgrade --refresh
• sudo dnf install dnf-plugin-system-upgrade
• sudo dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=44
(Adding " --allowerasing" to the end if you get errors fixes nearly all issues in my experience. Just be sure whatever it remvoes is something you can do without.)
• sudo dnf system-upgrade reboot
After the reboot/upgrade run:
• sudo dnf clean packages
And if you are using Silverblue
Thank you so much. 👍😊
