I think I updated my f7 laptop to f8 using yum. I don't remember exactly
what I did :-( There are some guides online that tell you what to do, I
seem to remember I followed one. If you google you will find several...

One in the fedoraproject site is here:

I do remember I did it from runlevel 3 (not in a full X login but a text
console). Safer that way just in case something messes up X during the
upgrade.
