Created attachment 659033 [details] FedUp log Description of problem: After running FedUp, I couldn't boot to fedora 18. The grub entry was missing an initrd line, and when I inspected /boot/ there was no initramfs file for fedora 18 kernel. I had to build it with dracut, and add it to the grub entry. Also, there was no upgrade.log on /var/log/ I had the nouveau modules blacklisted on older kernel lines, and it was also blacklisted on the new entry, as expected(?). I had installed the nvidia modules, which I removed prior to creating the initramfs image. The command I used to run fedup: sudo fedup-cli --network 18 --debuglog fedupdebug.log --instrepo http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/test/18-Beta/Fedora/x86_64/os
Just to clarify some of the points here (Gal, correct me if I'm wrong on any of this): - Started with a F17 system which was using the propriatary nvidia drivers, installed via rpmfusions akmod-nvidia package - Ran fedup-cli once, cancelled it due to a slow mirror and restarted - Rebooted and went through the 'System Upgrade'. No errors were noticed during the upgrade At this point, there was a F18 entry in grub which was booted by default but it led to a kernel panic very early in the boot process which was later found to be caused by the missing initrd line in grub2.cfg (there was no initramfs file for the f18 kernel, either) Since the f17 entries were still bootable, Gal removed the nvidia packages, built an initramfs for the f18 kernel installed during upgrade and added it to the f18 boot entry in grub. After going through this, the system is booting and seems to be working fine.
After much debugging of the post-upgrade system, it turns out that there was a power outage during the upgrade - very unfortunate timing. Since this was external to the system, it's not a bug in fedup or fedup-dracut and I'm closing as NOTABUG.
