Ah come on Timothy. For heavens sake. You are supposed to be smarter
than what you are doing. All of this information *I* found by reading
about it. Some of it here. Some of it with Google. And other sources.
And what? You want a complete list of instructions from me.? Then go
here. That's what I did. First Google hit "Fedora Preupgrade" on the
first page.

Fedora Preupgrade
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=How+to+use+PreUpgrade

And it should be *obvious* that since Fedora 11 has not yet been
released that Fedora 11 should *not* be offered as an upgrade option.

Why are you trying to make this difficult?
