Description Jamie Manley 2000-03-30 23:59:48 UTC
I downloaded the entire 6.2 distro, and rebooted with a floppy to upgrade my

Redhat 6.1 *only* system.  Everything was fine until I selected upgrade as

the install option, and the installer went to look for the RPMs.  I looks

like it is mounting the existing partitions, and then trying to mount the

partition where the RPMs are.  Meaning that /dev/hda6 is trying to be

mounted twice.



Is the local install option not supported for upgrades?  I didn't find any

docs to say one way or another.
