If all you've done is run fedup, then nothing has happened to the
installed Fedora.  You're fine.  Try doing a yum clean and deleting the
the /var/tmp/system-upgrade directory.  Then try fedup again.

If fedup actually completed at some point, then be careful when
rebooting.  There may be an upgrade entry in the boot list.  But since
it sounds like fedup never actually successfully completed, there
shouldn't be one.

Samuel, thank you for your help.

I did a "yum clean" which completed with no errors. There is no
/var/tmp/system-upgrade directory that I can find (a lot of old systemd
stuff though, so I purged that).

There are a lot of both F19 and F20 RPMs in /var/lib/yum/plugins/local,
however. Should these be purged as well?

I don't know of a way to see what's in the grub2 boot menu other than
actually trying a reboot, but I'll try to be careful.

- If at first you don't succeed, quit. No sense being a damned fool! -
