This was a DVD upgrade of a fedora 13 system. Upon rebooting, I seem to have a working system

This was on an upgrade. The popupmessage "installing bootloader" could have been the last message. I saw it when pressing ok or reboot or something.
The system seems to function normally and upgraded after reboot.
