More information... I had a second disk (hdb) which I was going to copy files from after I installed the new disk. It has a RH9 installtion on board. Config is hda is new and hda has old install of RH9. The conflict is apparently the fact that there are now two disk partitions with LABEL=/boot. This causes the partition table held by the main OS to be messed up. The /boot dir of the hda drive shows blank, no files or folders. Is there any way to have two installs of RH or FC1 on the same computer? This implies no. For a normal user this may be a problem if down the road they upgrade the primary disk drive and want to copy files like I did. Need a mention in docs or a work around IMHO. tb If the 2nd disk is there during the install anaconda will label the 2nd one /boot1 etc. There is nothing to stop you from doing that manually if you add the disk after install. Thanks ... I have got it pretty well figured out now, after a lot of time searching. The results of doing the drive upgrade were unexpected and to the uninitiated it appeared broke. It is quite normal to upgrade a drive these days and I would recommend a documentation entry about it so others don't fall victim. If someone knows how or who to forward this to that does docs, I would bet others that follow would be happy. Bouncing to util-linux. There are a few things that look wrong with that fstab line... :) /dev/hda4 /pub ext3 defaults,user 1 2 should work better... Definitely not an autofs issue. *** Bug 1476848 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
