What I have done in the past was to install the latest release, go
through a full update, and then replace fedora-release, from the rawhide
repo, and add fedora-release-rawhide. I then 'yum clean all' and run
'yum distribution-synchronization  --fastestmirror --skip-broken'. It
takes a while but has worked every time. So far.  :-)

First thing that would / could be a game stopper would be for those that
have third party packages installed. I would think that those cause many
of the 'my update failed' problems.
