I don't update my Fedora systems unless I have a real need,

so yesterday I started updating from F35 to F38

I used the:

dnf system-update download --releasever=xx

process.

Related, you should follow <https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/upgrading-fedora-offline/>.

 

- My first update from F35 to F36 worked.

- Then I did the F36 to F37 update.

  KDE wouldn't work until I uninstalled qt5-qtwebengine-freeworld

  to get KDE on X11 to work again.

- Once that was working I started the F37 to F38

It did all the downloads, transaction checking, and (presumably) installing

and is now showing:

Booting 'Fedora Linux (6.8.4-100.fc38.x86_64) 38 (KDE Plasma)'

It's been about 2 hours... How long do I have to wait?

It's also too bad, it doesn't tell you what it is or was last doing.
