This sounds like a case of not having enough space on your /boot partition.
I had a similar set of issues going from (?) F15 to F16 (or F16 to F17) on
my laptop. At the time I had only a 100-200MB /boot partition (if anyting
something smaller than what the upgrade could handle). Even with wiping out
all of the backup kernels and leaving the most current one, there was still
not enough space for the upgrade.
I don't think I have a problem with the /boot partition size.
$ df -h /boot/
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda5 485M 109M 352M 24% /boot
But in my description made you think that was the problem?
Your description of the issue reminds of me of my experience. I tried to
both do a network-based upgrade (whatever preceded fedup), and and upgrade
from a DVD.
I think that you not only need space for the new kernel, but also for the
legacy one, in the event the upgrade fails. So, given the space you have
shown could be the key limiting factor.
