I had exactly the same experience with my laptop (Dell Inspiron 2200).  Like you, mine was an upgrade from FC8....same results....same error. Once it rebooted, it was running in FC9 just fine.

Subject: Final step failed on upgrade to F9 beta

I successfully ran an upgrade from x86_64 F-8 (with all package updates) to F-9
beta yesterday on my very recent Lenovo Thinkpad X61. I used telnet with installation iso on /home of the
target system to accomplish the upgrade accessibly. I'll report re
issues of F-9 later. In this email I only want to note that everything
went smoothly ...

UNTIL package installations completed. I never got the "congrats,
Reboot" screen. After package installation reached 100% (2318 packages),
the next screen kept painting, over and over--for hours. It eventually dropped to
an Anaconda error screen. The OK button did successfully reboot the system.


My anacdump.txt is attached--not sure whether attachments are allowed,
though. So please advise if I should send this file differently.
