Fedora asks to install OS Updates. I confirm and then below the Power Off option of the GNOME Shell, it says Install Updates and Restart.

I click it. It restarts, tries to install updates but suddenly it turns the computer off, and when I log back in, it says it failed to install the updates because it didn't reach the Network.

I am connected via WiFi to a Stable connection. (Also tried with an Ethernet Cable)

All the Package Updates are successfully Installed! (Weird?)

Could someone Help me updating?

Edit: I solved my Problem. I did a sudo yum update and now everything is fine! (Just for those who have the same problem!)

If all the packages were successfully installed, what is the problem?

I can Install Packages! But the OS Updates need restart. The OS Updates are those that can't be installed!

Open a terminal and do a "yum update".

Or report what errors this command gives you.

I do yum update, and it says if I want to install 4 Packages, update 147 (is it suspicious?) and remove 2 kernel Packages (fc-17 Kernel files). I Believe it is safe, isn't it?

Should I complete the yum update?

However, when the updater pops up, I click install updates. And after a Reboot, the SAME updates need to be installed! (Weird again?)

Any help please!?!?

I think this is a known bug in package kit. Please complete the yum update transaction. That should update your system and get rid of quite a few of your issues.

OK. Thanks. I will try it and post if it is solved!

Thanks it! The "Install and Restart" Disappeared and yum update says that no Packages are marked for Update! Thanks!
