F35 Beta upgrade issue

Hi all,

this tutorial https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...-a-4175700888/ tweaked my interest and I decided to upgrade a F34 VM to the beta.

This is the normal path I use to upgrade my Fedora boxes - one PC with 3 VMs underneath - although I haven't tried a beta in a while. Everything went to plan although I did not watch all of the final bit after "dnf system-upgrade reboot". This had reached 46% when I stopped watching. When I came back to the PC I was presented with the login prompt.

Whoops, when F35 comes up I attempt to login I get "Failed to Start Session". Same if I attempt to login as root. I should point out this is the GUI login.

I guess this is all part of the fun of the beta. For the record:
  • F34 was up to date before the upgrade
  • This is the xfce spin
  • I'll also note that files were backed up - this VM has a minimal footprint so is easy recoverable.
It would be good to revive the system though. I am faced with a login prompt. Is there any way I can fall back to the command line and hopefully install some updates?
