The same has happened to me.  I also tried the update from Fedora core
0.95 and go the same result.  I guess the Fedora team was not interested
in making sure the upgrade option was working.  This is an obvious thing
that one should test.  Also, I have seen no reasonable responses from
anyone regarding this issue!!

Have you checked bugzilla?  I have not checked bugzilla; maybe I should.

Maybe Fedora should remove the update option and only allow a fresh
install.
