I added:

[f17-usrmove-i386]
name=Fedora $releasever - $basearch
failovermethod=priority
baseurl=http://koji.fedoraproject.org/repos/f17-usrmove/latest/i386
enabled=1
metadata_expire=1d
gpgcheck=0

And got the following errors:

   Updating   : coreutils-8.15-5.fc17.x86_64 
              7/223
/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.T9mWTk: line 1: /usr/bin/grep: No such file or directory

   Updating   : filesystem-3-1.fc17.x86_64

filesystem-2.4.46-1.fc17.x86_64 was supposed to be removed but is not!


Now I get:

# ls -l /
-bash: /bin/ls: No such file or directory

Shutdown did not complete.  Boot now fails with:

dracut: Switching root
switch_root: failed to execute /etc/init: Permission denied
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!

even with enforcing=0


Anyone want any postmortem info before I reinstall the VM?
