(I'm doing this from a windows-7 box)

This morning, I did my weekly patches for my f-39 stand-alone workstation.  No problems.

Then I did the upgrade to f-40.  I did not sit there and watch it. During the automatic reboot, it booted using the nouveau driver rather than the kmod one from rpm fusion non-free.  During the post-upgrade task "remove-retired-packages", the workstation apparently crashed. Upon rebooting, it came up in console(?) mode; I could not get into graphics mode.

I shutdown again, and tried to boot into f-39.  But it came up f-40, console mode.

I  have neither "live" media nor installation media; last time I tried them, they didn't work.  F-40 console mode and window-7 are all I have to work with.

How do I get this workstation working properly in Fedora?

I went to the github site for remove-retires-packages, and opened an issue suggesting that the tool log to a log file, and that the tool's man page report where the logs are.  The tool owner replied that the tool logs to dnf logs, and suggested two commands to get some relevant information.  He agreed that the man page needed the update.

The first command that the tool owner suggested is "dnf history list".  I did that and redirected output to the text file "dnfhist.txt".  It's attached.  From that, I concluded that the tool most likely hung/crashed while trying to remove "libgweather4".  (Notice how long that took.)  Question: Does anything in that list of deleted packages look suspicious or wrong?

The second command that the tool owner suggested is "dnf history info [ID]", where ID is from the output of "dnf history list".  I did that for "libgweather4" and redirected output to the text file "info1665.txt".  It's attached.  Does anything in there look suspicious or wrong?

I can't rule out the possibility that the removal that crashed/hung came between "libgweather" and "libkworkspace5", and the hang/crash occurred before the removal could be logged.
