Bonjour,

Today I tried to upgrade from fc34 to fc36.

Downloading the package was okay. Problems occur when I agreed to system-upgrade-reboot:
1- No display... I could only dee the led showing HDD accesses
2- After sometimes (when no more accesses were showed, I press enter key on the keyboard and the system rebooted on fc34 kernel and still no display... 3- I pressed the "y" key on the the keyboard (in case the system upgrade was asking some question...) and the display came (hurray!) : I could see the login screen of the fc36 version. I could login but all my previous display settings were gone.... 4- I checked the kernel with command uname -r and it is stille the fc34 kernel which running... No f36 packages have been installed in /boot.... 5- many packages from fc34 remain installed and only some fc36 packages have been installed.

What can I do to have a coherent fc36 install now?

At that point, I would boot off the Fedora 38 workstation live image, back up your /home directory to a USB disk or something like that, nuke your computer, and do a fresh install, and restore your home directory.

You're coming from a REALLY old version which was probably really out of date to another pretty old version which is already and of life. I'd back up, wipe the drive, start fresh, and restore your home directory. It will probably be much faster than trying to fix a broken system.
