Hi JB and others,

before trying 
# yum distro-sync
as you suggested me, i would try to understand the issue with preupgrade.
I have restarted my nb and i see it hangs on infamous:

		waiting for hardware to initialize

like in  Ashley M. Kirchner thread.
I would know if it makes any sense to insert these flags and the others you
suggeted to Ashley

ignore_loglevel enforcing=0 initcall_debug

in grub.conf Upgrade line:
title Upgrade to Fedora 14 (Laughlin)
        kernel /upgrade/vmlinuz preupgrade repo=hd::/var/cache/yum/preupgrade
ks=hd:UUID=c46f0b8e-ea34-47f5-8c7f-57a7f3a5d531:/upgrade/ks.cfg
stage2=http://fedora.mirror.garr.it/mirrors/fedora/linux/releases/14/Fedora/i386/os/images/install.img
initrd /upgrade/initrd.img

Yesterday I tried to boot a F14 CD live and it worked.

My lspci regarding smbus is:
00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) SMBus Controller (rev 03)
        Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Presario C700
        Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 19
        Memory at 92404c00 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=256]
        I/O ports at 3000 [size=32]
        Kernel driver in use: i801_smbus
        Kernel modules: i2c-i801


complete lspci and dmesg are here
