Used dnf to upgrade from fedora 24 to fedora 25. Upgrade seemed to work but I cannot get to a login screen. I got into grub2 and in looking at the log file I see an error message stating: "failed to start switch root, /sysroot is not on os tree, os-release file is missing". I do not know what the file is and looked on google and fedora forums for possible answers but could find nothing. As of right now I am booting from my Workstation Live iso since my rescue disk does not seem to work either, so I am having a lot of trouble getting more information or even trying to fix anything. Unfortunately, bugzilla is not the place where people get help to fix broken system. Probably something went wrong during upgrade. I would recommend to write to https://ask.fedoraproject.org or to users mailing list with logs from dnf and system-upgrade (in journald). |
