Upgrade from Fedora 14 or 15 to Fedora 16 with preupgrade leaves bootloader in previous configuration
link <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common_F16_bugs#preupgrade-bootloader-fail> to this item - Bugzilla: #737731 <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=737731> If you used the preupgrade utility to upgrade from Fedora 14 or 15 to Fedora 16, the bootloader configuration may have been left in its previous state. This was due to preupgrade not recognizing that anaconda cannot 'update' the bootloader configuration in such an upgrade, due to the migration from grub to grub2 that should occur as part of the upgrade. This would result either in the system attempting to boot with a Fedora 14 kernel, or failing to boot entirely (depending on whether the previously-installed kernel is still present following the upgrade). This issue was fixed for Fedora 14 in the updated preupgrade-1.1.10-1.fc14 <https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2011-16047/preupgrade-1.1.10 -1.fc14> package and for Fedora 15 in the updated preupgrade-1.1.10-1.fc15 <https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2011-14766/preupgrade-1.1.10 -1.fc15> package. To ensure you do not encounter this issue, check that you have at least this version of preupgrade installed before upgrading to Fedora 16.
