Hit esc and a text boot screen was there, but appeared to be frozen for a very long time. Sure looked like it was just stuck. The drive light did not flicker as long as I was looking. I guess it eventually did something once I walked away and went to lunch, because when I came back f20 was booted up just fine. -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test

I run into an experience similar to Neal's when trying a f17->f19 fedup upgrade. A splash screen, no progress bar of any kind, no reaction to whatever one is trying on a keyboard. A drive light was flickering from time to time, though, so I left it sit for a looong time before eventually rebooting with a help of a power switch. From a timestamp on a new initramfs it was good that I was really patient. :-) An automatic reboot was supposed to happen according to logs but reality was different. OTOH the whole upgrade was eventually performed and this was still a "very early fedup" (but run actually so late that results were likely not that interesting) so I did not bother anybody with this mixed impressions. > sounds like somehow that didn't work for you?

It should show a graphical bootsplash with a progress bar on tty1, and if you hit esc, a text boot screen with more detailed info. did for me, in testing. sounds like somehow that didn't work for you? -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
fedup f19-f20 success (sort of)
It did succeed. But I thought it wasn't going to. After reboot into fedup, it gave *no indication at all* that it was doing anything. I was sure it was hosed, but left and went to lunch. No visual indication anything was happening, no flickering of the disk activity light. I switched consoles and all I saw no updates to any messages. I don't know how (or if it's even possible) to switch to a console and run top to see what is happening. Not a good user experience. -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
