Hi, all.

I tried to upgrade from F7 to F8 with preupgrade-0.9.2-1.fc7.i386.
The packages were downloaded, grub.conf was edited.

But after I reboot and choose "Upgrade to Fedora 8 (Werewolf)", itwas frozen

at a message "running /sbin/loader".
How can I collect debug-infos?

Upgrading to Fedora 8 with preupgrade is not supported. Futureversions of preupgrade don't allow that. Try Rawhide instead.
