Description of problem: During an upgrade from FC6 to F7 after selecting the boot loader options, there was a python exception in: /usr/lib/anaconda/textw/upgrade_bootloader_text.py line 152 After checking this I found the cause: an empty line in my /etc/modprobe.conf. Removing empty lines before update solved the problem. How reproducible: Put empty line(s) into /etc/modprobe.conf before upgrade. Additional info: The code in this line is the culprit: if l.strip()[0] == "#": It assumes a non-empty line.
