Hi,
after several days of testing upgrading Fedora 19 to fedora 20, i face
the same issue.
whatever Virtual machine i use (Virtualbox or VMware Workstation) the
result is always the same... after upgrading the virtual machine turns
into a black/blank screen and nothing can be done.
it doesn't machine if i install or not virtualbox tools (or vmware
toold) it's the same results.
Here are the basic features of my virtual machine
* 1 CPU / 2cores,
* 4GB RAM
* 128MB Video
to reproduce the issue:
1. launch VMWare Workstation 10 and install Fedora 19 x64 from DVD iso
2. as root, do a yum update to be sure fedora 19 is up to date
3. do a yum install fedup (to get latest version of fedup)
4. do a snapshot for fallback in case of...be sure you will need it
5. do a fedup --network 20
6. reboot after upgrade
7. ==> after booting via grub2, your virtual machine with turn into a
blank screen :(
the same issue with VirtualBox.
after that i tried yum install fedora-release fedora-update but i get
the same result.
So anybody has an idea what is the problem ?
a wild guess: Did you make sure you had fedup version 0.8? earlier versions
will apparently leave you with a broken system.
in fact i did a yum install fedup
and i got the version 0.8.3 as far as i remember.
