But there is *no* difference during boot (kernel panic etc.). @Sam: I tried your suggestion either (before dracut) but it is not helping anyhow. Particualry "chroot /mnt/sysimage" is failing (no such directory). All I want is to resume the upgrade. I mean, I didn't do anything fancy. Is it by purpose that one unimportant package causing trouble during upgrade is killing my whole machine? Is that a bug or a feature? I am completely frustrated and currently not convinced of Fedora (except of its community of course, I appreciate your effort!). Lost in rebooting, Philipp -- GRATIS! Movie-FLAT mit Ãber 300 Videos.
