Trying to update F17 to F18 Beta by preupgrade Package: anaconda-18.28 OS Release: Fedora release 18
Upgraded from 17 to 18LXDE....evrything went well with no errors until reboot. Will not boot to finish upgrade bit 17 still works. Package: anaconda-18.28 OS Release: Fedora release 18
preupgrade isn't how we do upgrades for moving to F18. There's a new tool named fedup (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedUp) that handles upgrades, and doesn't involve anaconda at all. Please try it out and see if it works better for you. Using preupgrade (and thus anaconda) wouldn't give you what you want anyway, since anaconda no longer knows how to handle upgrades. I'm going to close this for now since through fedup you will not use any of this code, and I don't think you'll be able to hit this problem under normal installation circumstances. If you do, though, please feel free to reopen. Thanks,
