Hi all
I solved the problem installing on my Fedora 9.
The problem was that anaconda told the error:
PackageSackError: No Package matching kernel

I use the PAE kernel version.

After some attempts I installed the kernel for i586. After that I run
the preupgrade that downloaded the updated kernel for i586 and at reboot
all worked well.

I don't know if it's a problem on preupgrade (in fedora 9) or on
anaconda (in the new fedora 10) but I think is a big problem.

In a few weeks I will try also the step F10 -> F11 and if I found the
same problem I will file a bug.

Bye
