You might consider changing the runlevel to avoid the GUI until you sort out your problems. * multi-user.target - non-gui, like on a server * graphical.target - gui, like on a desktop * rescue.target - does not start non-essential services A typical command would be `sudo systemctl set-default multi-user.target` followed by `sudo systemctl reboot`. After you get your problems sorted out, perform some of the post-upgrade tasks at <https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/upgrading-fedora-offline/#sect-optional-post-upgrade-tasks>.
