F12 -> F14 Preupgrade Issue

I had a similar problem to this back in July when I tried to used
Preupgrade to move from F12 to F13. At the time I ran out of spare
time so I just stayed on F12. Now I'm trying to use Preupgrade to go
from F12 to F14 and I'm getting the same issue.
Preupgrade downloads all of the required data (so it's not a free
space issue). When I reboot and choose the Upgrade to Laughlin option
I get the message:
"Unable to find any device of the type needed for this installation
type. Would you like to manually select your driver or use a driver
disk."
There's an option to choose from a list of drivers. The list contains
all kinds of drivers - network cards, storage devices, probably others
- I don't know what I should be choosing.
If it helps, my disk layout is as follows:
$ df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda5 100790004 8666260 87003832 10% /
tmpfs 4125644 3072 4122572 1% /dev/shm
/dev/sda7 806346856 348886504 416500232 46% /data
/dev/sda6 251977516 153278152 85899140 65% /home
The PC is a Dell Studio XPS.
Any suggestions for fixing this would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Dave...
