Comment 1 Isaque Galdino 2018-05-02 12:42:09 UTC 
The problem was actually that I was copying the --allowerasing command from this page: https://fedoramagazine.org/upgrading-fedora-27-fedora-28/
and it seems that it mess up with the characters.

So the solution is to just type it in the command line.
