Hello all,
I've just tried to upgrade a fully updated vmware image of FC5 to yesterday's rawhide and it killed my FC5. (thank God for vmware's snapshots ;))
And now for the bugs:
1. Anaconda failed to detect the previous /boot partition and mount it. It had to be done manually. (AFAICS there's no GUI fo it during an upgrade - it must be done using console) http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=208093
2. I entered the wrong URL into the HTTP server address, Anaconda failed to detect the mistake and crashed when it tried to download files. (Instead of giving me an option to correct the URL) http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=208094
3. Killer bug: Anaconda throws an exception while trying to upgrade an existing grub.conf configuration. (After two hours of HTTP install :-( ) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=208193
This is the third time I'm trying to upgrade this FC5 setup (Test2, Test3, Rawhide) and I've yet to get a working test/rawhide image out of it. I'm know it has been said (and ruled out) before, but considering how close FC6-release date is, wouldn't be wise to delay the release by a couple of weeks and give Anaconda some time to mature? (Maybe add some time to release Test4?)
