md /boot is definitely broken, has been for ages and the bugs don't seem to have been touched. It's also obvious nobody bothered to actually test that case because the error paths in the install code don't actually work for that case either ! Fortunately the usual updating fedora-release, yum upgrade approach worked on my boxes. I'd avoid preupgrade anyway it seems to like breaking systems and leaving them half upgraded so you have to rescue the mess by hand. "all of my system has a wrong openssl version" all these symptoms sound like your upgrade went horribly wrong. I've seen preupgrade mash up a box by half upgrading like that. It's the main reason I don't think preupgrade is actually safe to use yet. "i already install f11 yum show 2069 packages to update!!! just one month after the release! my system consist of 2059" In other words your box didn't update to F11 in the first place, it just updated a few things and exploded, which is what it tends to do. You were basically running FC10 and a few random bits of FC11. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
