Issues with doing a fedup upgrade from 23 to 24

[Michael D. Setzer II]

Not sure what the issue is. Am currently 7 timezones away from my 
classroom machines, but wanted to update a few before I get back. Had to 
run the process 3 times on first machine before it finally did the upgrade.
fedup --network 24 --allowerasing
Process seems to go thru just fine, and then do 
dnf system-upgrade reboot
And it reboots, but then comes back to the 23 version.
Did that twice with VNC connection to machine, and then did it a 3rd time, in 
which I sshed in via another local machine. 
Thought that might be the issue, but then did a ssh connection upgrade 
process on two other machines twice, and they did not upgrade. Can't see 
the systems during the reboot process, and didn't see anything in the /var/log 
files to show any errors.
Trying on those machines again, but after the failed system-upgrade, it has 
to download all the files again??

Thanks.

Run "dnf system-upgrade log" to see a list of upgrade attempts.
Then run "dnf system-upgrade log <number>" to see the log from the attempt.

It shouldn't, but you can copy the /var/lib/dnf/system-upgrade directory 
somewhere to keep them.  You can even copy that directory over to 
another computer to avoid downloading all the files again.
