If a kernel update wasn't done as part of the upgrade, the boot message will  
still report F18, until the first F19 kernel update gets installed.

Running package-cleanup --cleandupes should remove the F18 package if an F19  
package is already installed. Do that, then as long as the fedora-release  
package was updated to F19, you should be able to run 'yum update', and  
complete the upgrade.
