PreUpgrade to Fedora 12?

[engelbma]

Here is the deal.

I opted to go for preupgrade instead of downloading .iso
Followed directions from - http://docs.fedoraproject.org/instal...l/ch17s02.html

All went well and get "Reboot" instruction. (See screen shots @ http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/PreUpgrade)
Reboots fine and then I am back into Fedora 11, no mention in Grub of Fedora 12?

What am I missing?

what do cat /etc/fedora-release and yum repolist return?

Hi milomak,

Thanks for the help.

Sorry too late. I did a clean install just now and everything is running great.

I have never done an upgrade. For some people they work great, but I always prefer a clean install - especially with Fedora. Actually, I don't even have a separate /home partition because I don't want previous settings to hide or interfere with new features.

I just keep the previous release around for a while and slowly migrate my data over to the new release. This is not ideal for everyone, but I like starting afresh every six months or so.
