I had a few times where the simple upgrade with Anaconda didn't work for poo-dilly, luckily I didn't have anything critical on those (2) machines, and could just then do a fresh install. On 2 other machines, I had no problem with the upgrade. It was rather odd.

Go through the last week or so of messages in this list and prepair accordingly. Yes, I know it's not the preferred answer but it is the only one available at this time. If you wait a couple of weeks there's likely to be a couple of FC6 help documents floating around.

Do a backup before you start.

There is also a respin project for Fedora now, so if they feel it is warranted a new respin of FC6 could available if you wait a bit. With the 586/686 kernel issue, it is probably worth doing, but I don't know if the people heavily involved in that project feel the same way.
