There (still) isn't a GUI for fedup 'stage 1' (the pre-reboot part), so
that much is normal. It would usually show a pulsing Fedora logo with a
small progress bar during the post-reboot stages, but there may be cases
where it doesn't. Have you modified  your grub.cfg to disable graphical
bootsplash, e.g. removing 'rhgb quiet'? I think the upgrade boot would
inherit that change if you did, since fedup uses 'new-kernel-pkg' to
create its grub entry.

Sometimes things in F(N-1) do get ahead of things in F(N), it's not
entirely unknown. Especially around release time, because there are
still more people on N-1. fedup 0.8 has not gone stable yet for F20,
which sort of makes sense, because how would you test it? Most people
aren't going to fedup to Rawhide :) (I have actually run a fedup to
Rawhide and it worked for me, but I'm kind of an outlier.)
