I didn't point to the raw device, but instead I pointed to the mounted

--device /run/media/[user-name]/Fedora\ 18\ x86_64

as per documentation.

The command switch is a bit misleading, since with device you might think
to point to /dev/sr0 instead of the mount point.

. . . . just my two cents.

That's exactly what "mountpoint" means to me. That's what I specified, and fedup accepted that without any issues. If that's wrong, fedup should've thrown this back in my face, or, upon reboot, there should be some kind of an informative error message. This should not result in an unexpected reboot, with no clue as to its root cause. I'll bugzilla this.

Interestingly enough, the installer now has an option to activate a wireless connection and, presumably, also pull in any updates; however with fedup, the existing wireless apparently did not get activated, so all it did was update the packages in the ISO image, and I had to manually load the updates after F18's initial load.
