Splitting this from the 32-bit thread so it doesn't get overlooked.
Sorry for
the double-post.



One additional request: it's unclear right now (and we
don't have
available hardware to test) if there is also a failure happening on
64-
bit AMD systems that are running on i686 Fedora.

If someone out there
has access to hardware that hits BZ #1263762,
would you please try installing
Fedora 22 i686, updating to all the
latest stable packages, plus
dnf-plugin-system-upgrade from updates-
testing and then do an upgrade using
the supported mechanism[1] and
verify whether A) the upgrade runs or aborts,
leaving F22 present and
B) if it completes the upgrade, is the system bootable
and runnable.

This will help us figure out how serious to rate this issue.
(For new
installs, we can probably advocate simply using the 64-bit media;
for
existing installs, irrecoverably breaking on upgrade could be a
show-
stopper).
