I did some testing of fedup on external USB HD- bios boot for #fedora-qa [1]

1-) Backup your work before attempting this
2-) fully update your f20 install (disable any no-fedora repositories)
3-) In root terminal:

yum update
yum install fedup
fedup --network 21 --product workstation

Possible commands:
    product [workstation|server|cloud|nonproduct]

    use --product nonproduct for KDE ;other spins and minimal :
fedup --network 21 --product nonproduct
    reboot system
    "System Upgrade Fedup" on boot menu
 here is how I did it:   (fedup-dracut-0.9.0 )
    NOTE: Terminal display stops updating at about 68%
    TO FIX: Hit {alt} key or switch to {alt-f2} then {alt-f1}

Hi devel,

On the "Important Changes in the Upgrade process to Fedora 21" on the
FedUp wiki page[1], I see the following:

Apparently there will be a new option "--product=<PRODUCT>" and
before update you will be required to choose one of the
possibilities. To obtain the old behaviour apparently
--product=nonproduct should be used.
I think this could be improved to give more "sure" directions. I know
it's a wiki, and "just edit/fix it", but I don't know enough about
what it should be to confidently change it. Could someone who is more
sure than I (and the original author, apparently) of what it should be
weigh in? Is it just a case of removing the "apparently"(s)?

Thanks a lot,
Gerard.
