there are NO REASONS for Fedora
if you need LTS because you have reasons you use the wrong distribution

I stopped caring after not getting a response, and
follow this thread now for amusement, watching sensible people not only
beat a dead horse, but drag the carcass through the streets.

Absolutely.  Yesterday's updates (I presume) somehow b0rk my desktop, running F 17; even rebooting into an older
kernel didn't get things back.  (No, this isn't an attempt to hijack the thread; it's just background for what
follows.)  The boot process never completes, but when disk activity stops, I can get to an alternate TTY and log
in; sometimes, but not always, the network's up.  (I'm a tad suspicious of my NIC, but again, that's a side issue.)

I've decided that the best thing to do is to reinstall Fedora

and why did you not

* login after press CTRL+ALT+F3 as root

He did that, unless you read "get an alternate TTY" to mean something else.

* type "cat /var/log/yum.log"
* yum downgrade "package1 package2 package3"

?????????????????????????????

this is not windows
