I am running the upgrade and it continues to install, however there is a window that popped up with a red circle with a while horizontal line in the upper Left corner of the window. The 3 lines of text explaining what is wrong are all represented by blocks instead of letters.
There are two button options, a small red/pink button with 7 blocks and a larger gray box with two blocks. I assume that the gray block is "OK".

No idea what the error might be. It happened fairly early on in the installation process.

It was hard to get the "Terminal" window to scroll up while additional things were being loaded. Only warning I found had to do with installation of crypto something.

Went ahead and let it install completely and reboot and it worked normally, so I will assume that the error was not major.

System is a very old AMD CPU. (want to say 2500+ but I forget at the moment.)
