Description of problem:
Using preupgrade to upgrade a F15 box, I am shown a progress bar as the upgrade progresses.

Unfortunately the progress bar isn't very useful because it doesn't show me either:
i) the progress based on the amount of time the upgrade will take
or:
ii) the progress based on the number of things the upgrade process has to complete

Additional info:
The cleanup part is under-represented on the progress. That last few percent during cleanup takes *ages* to finish.

In light of the UI rework getting done, the current code is unlikely to get fixed up since we'd just be throwing it away anyway.

Comment 2 Need Real Name 2011-10-31 17:14:50 UTC
Could we at least write "Booting into preupgrade (this may take a few minutes)..."?

The new ui in anaconda-18.3 includes this functionality.
