I am trying to move upto Fedora Core from RH 8 and during the upgrade I
keep getting an error message and being told to reboot. This message
occurs right after I select the partition to upgrade. (/dev/hda3)
--- error message
Error mounting device sda1 as /mnt/pix.
No such file or directory
This most likely means this partition has not been formatted.
Press OK to reboot your system.
--- end error message.
I don't have a scsi drive or controller (sda1) so I would assume that
the install is trying to use the CD rom or the partition that my RH 8
is installed on and is having problems with linking.
This error occurs in either graphical or text install attempts at the
same location.
I guess I will hold off on Fedora until I hear an answer.
CD have been tested using the install test routine and all have been
confirmed.
