That won't work. /boot is a partition. When the installer starts it will
mount /boot as /mnt/sysimage/boot. Your link will not be valid.

What I did was place the /boot/upgrade/install.img on a thumb drive and
deleted it from /boot. Anaconda then asked for where the install.img was
and I pointed it to my flash drive. F12 upgraded without a hitch.
