Not really. The preupgrade in F7 is old and sketchy. It's known to be
unstable and *will* break horribly under certain (not uncommon)
circumstances. I'm glad you were lucky enough to get through it
unscathed!

If anyone else is still using F7, it *might* work better if you install
the F8 preupgrade package (which *can* upgrade to F10) and use that
instead. But I haven't tested that, because F7 is long-dead. 

I'll give that a try when I have some free time; if it works, I'll see
if it's possible to get an updated preupgrade package into the F7 repos
somehow.

Will, that would be great.  I'm sure we're not the only ones with machines still on F7.
