12:24 p.m.
I tried to update my Operative system (fedora 32) to new version fedora 34
After the execution of the automatic procedure (download and restart) .
On the information .... the computer show still : (Fedora 32 Workstation
Edition) ...
Why is this happening ..
What does this mean ??
Thank you for having some information about it ...
Angelo
7:10 a.m.
it is someone that can give me a clue to understand because after I
upgraded Fedora to 34,
I still continue to read Fedora 32 on the information <the setting> of my
computer ?
Is it really still Fedora 32 or is it only a bad information, that I
receive ?
Thank you

thank you Andras,
The answer is :
*<Fedora release 32 (Thirty Two)>*
seems the upgrading didn't work ...
--------------
I used automatic upgrading for get Fedora 30, 31 and Fedora 32.. ,
In these cas I simply pushed the <button> <Restart & Update>, that is
down
the label
<Fedora xx Now Available>...
---
For upgrading to Fedora 34 that is no good (why ?).
Can you suggest to me how I can better control the automatic process (to
upgrading) ??
Thank you

Are you using the Workstation edition of Fedora? And, if so, are you using the GUI of
Gnome
to perform the upgrade?
I don't use that method since I prefer to watch as much of the process as possible.
You may also wish to go from F32 to F33 first.
What I would do you your case is the following.
From a terminal session.....
sudo dnf update (to make sure your current system is fully updated)
sudo dnf install dnf-plugin-system-upgrade (just to make sure you have the plug-in
installed)
if packages have been updated, then reboot just to make sure changes have taken
effect.
Then, again from the terminal.
sudo dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=34 (or 33 if you want to do it in
increments)
when complete
sudo dnf system-upgrade reboot
The system will boot and show the F32 kernel to start with but the upgrade process should
begin.
Consult https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/dnf-system-upgrade/ if a package
issue is
preventing the upgrade from proceeding without additional parameters being added to the
upgrade
command. A common problem is an issue with a non-fedora repo/package.

thank you very much Ed,
I made the manual procedure..,
(using the shutdown -r now -to reboot after sudo dnf system-upgrade
download --releasever=33 )
but after I give the last command :<sudo dnf system-upgrade reboot>
I got the error message : :
\Error: system is not ready for upgrade
:-(
I remember that I renounced to upgrade to Fedora 33
because I had already this problem
...
what it is possible to do ??
thank you

Oh, so you've seen this error before?
The error message is seems rather vague. Is there anything in the journal that may shed
some light?
How about your current disk space?

What was the output after that command finished?

Running transaction check
Transaction check succeeded.
Running transaction test
Transaction test succeeded.
Complete!
Transaction saved to /var/lib/dnf/system-upgrade/system-upgrade-transaction.json.
Download complete! Use 'dnf system-upgrade reboot' to start the upgrade.
To remove cached metadata and transaction use 'dnf system-upgrade clean'
The downloaded packages were saved in cache until the next successful transaction.
You can remove cached packages by executing 'dnf clean packages'.

there can be dependencies problems.
the option < --allowerasing> allows to delete SW that can give problems....
I have to try this even if it is dangerous

It's not really dangerous. It will show you a list of what will be
deleted and unless you've been doing strange things, it won't be
deleting anything critical. I have often had to add that option for
upgrades.

A backup is always a good idea.

If you post the output showing the actual errors it will make it easier for others on the

There is a bug report that suggests that the error message you're
describing can occur if "sudo dnf system-upgrade reboot" is not the step
immediately following "sudo dnf system-upgrade download".

I don't see the output of "sudo dnf system-upgrade download
--releasever=34" on your system in this thread. If there were conflicts
that require --allowerasing, you should see them there. Could you post
the output of the download command? (And if it doesn't report any
errors, then run "sudo dnf system-upgrade reboot" next.)
