This update works around a serious problem in Fedora 21 Beta which makes systems automatically shut down 15 minutes into the upgrade.
Other improvements :
Adds --product=PRODUCT
flag, required for upgrades to F21
Uses host’s config files in upgrade.img
, which should fix various upgrade problems (e.g. incorrect keyboard layout when unlocking disks due to missing vconsole.conf
)
Logging improvements: complete upgrade log should appear in system journal
Adds a warning for upgrades without a new kernel
Fixes a bunch of crashes
Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
