====[http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/test/2013-March/114298.html Do not install kernel if upgrading to f19]====
"... So I installed fedora-release from the F19 repo and did a yum
distro-sync today. Then I installed a new kernel build. Then I rebooted.
Then nothing would boot at all.
It turns out this is because the release name of Fedora 19 is:
Schrödinger's Cat
with a single quote used as an apostrophe. That release name gets
written into the grub entry for a kernel when you're installing it.
...The single quote in the release name terminates the quotes early, and leaves the rest of the
stuff that's meant to be inside the single quotes as garbage lying
around the config file. ..."
