Improve failure handling

Open wgwoods opened this issue 12 years ago • 2 comments

Basically, when the system crashes, we should probably display an error message and tell the user how boned they are, and let them choose between a shell and rebooting.

More specifically - if the upgrade-prep service fails, we should:

  • [ ] print a message about the failure
  • [ ] log failure to /var/log/upgrade.log
  • [ ] do the "root password for debugging or reboot" prompt
  • [ ] reboot if no activity after ~60 sec

We might also want fedup to provide info about failures via fedup status or fedup log - see #51 for more thoughts on commandline/workflow stuff.
