Did you have a lock on the anaconda output file ?
If you demonstrate me that it is the problem I will try to update to
fedora 11 and it will have to work !
I built up my opinion on the fact that anaconda even did not try to
start the update. It did fail before the update !
It seems not happy with the logical volumes or with the partitions
configuration.
