FedUp just reboots

Hi all,

I have a Lenovo Thinkpad T430 with EFI enabled and Fedora 17 installed. I tried to use FedUp to upgrade it to Fedora 18. The first problem was that the system for some reason had both grub-efi and grub2 installed, so FedUp's grubby call failed. I fixed that by removing the grub2 packages.

The second problem was more difficult. When I chose System Upgrade from Grub, the system seemed to boot but then immediately rebooted as well. Maybe something in the upgrade scripts failed and caused the reboot?

I managed to start the upgrade by changing the systemd target to systemd.unit=rescue.target on the Grub command line and then when the system booted to the rescue mode, I ran systemctl isolate system-upgrade.target . Now the upgrade is running but I've seen a couple of SELinux messages, I guess I'll find out soon if the system is completely hosed ;)
