It also appears the old LVM partition had become corrupted as when booting the rescue DVD I couldn't see my old home directory. Anyway I'm going to reinstall Fedora 14, update to latest releases, and then try again. Hopefully, with this being a standard Fedora 14 it'll succeed.
Why not fresh install F15?
I only had a fedora 14 install DVD, and yes, I should have created a fedora 15 install DVD first. Basically I should know better!!!
Apart from which I'm looking to upgrade my laptop Fedora 14 -> 15. So determining if I can do this reliably first is the idea. Whatever, I need either my Desktop or Laptop working reliably. Currently for Fedora 15, updating appears to be a potentially disastrous operation based on my experience. There is also the possibility of other Fedora 15 quirks I'd like to sort out beforehand as well.
Regardless,your point was well made.
