as your normal user

vi mv2rawhide.sh

#!/bin/bash
echo ---- Hold on to your HardDrive, were going RawHide!!!----------
echo
echo Disable fedora.repo
sed 's/enabled=1/enabled=0/' /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora.repo > 
/etc/yum.repos.d/temp1 ;
mv -f /etc/yum.repos.d/temp1 /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora.repo;
echo Done with fedora.repo
echo
echo Disable fedora-updates
sed 's/enabled=1/enabled=0/' /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates.repo > 
/etc/yum.repos.d/temp2 ;
mv -f /etc/yum.repos.d/temp2 /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates.repo;
echo Done with fedora-updates
echo
echo Disable fedora-extras
sed 's/enabled=1/enabled=0/' /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-extras.repo > 
/etc/yum.repos.d/temp3 ;
mv -f /etc/yum.repos.d/temp3 /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-extras.repo;

echo All done, lets update to rawhide now!

echo Performing yum update
yum update

exit

chmod +x mv2rawhide.sh
