Did you try using yum? I have always been successful with it (you may
need to remove obsolete packages or ones that generate complaints,
temporarily). I have never been successful with fedup (including
F18->F19 in the only instance I tried in the 18 to 19 case -- everything
went through w/o complaint but the system did not come up).

Look at the following: really three commands:

Thank you, I'll try this on one more machine, it can't work any worse than fedup! I'll let you know.

The boot process with an old kernel looks like fedup messad up the drive mapping, it complains about a non-existant disk(0,0) and stops booting. Unfortunately I'm not a LUKS expert, or a grub2 expert, and as long as I can avoiding sinking the unpaid time into becoming one I will not be. I will note that the Mint systems have all upgraded through 4-5 revisions without learning experiences.
