Another preupgrade disaster -

I ran preupgrade on an up-to-the-minute-updated F11 system.
Everything seemed to proceed normally until I "rebooted."
Even then it looked good until an error message came up:
Upgrade root not found
The root for the previously installed system was not found.
Exit Installer [Button]
Don't know what that means. Why does it want the "root" for the
previous system?
The system restarted F-11 after I clicked "Exit Installer."
It appears that I have all the F-12 files downloaded somewhere in
this box, I haven't looked, but it seems there ought to be a way to
finish.
Now I have looked and all the files are there, more than a gig of rpm's
and I can continue to run preupgrade and it finds those downloaded
files
but still produces the same error.
If I could repair whatever seems damaged it seems it ought to work?.
What do I need to do now?
Bob
