How reproducible:
Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
Hi,

while installing fc3t2 on a system that already had a semi-finished 
FC3t2 install (cd2 was corrupted), I chose

- upgrade existing system

at some point, the installer crashed, giving a stacktrace 

  /usr/bin/anaconda line 1162
  intf.run(id, ... 

when I pressed the debug button, I got a stacktrace which said
(halfway throuhg)

  OSError,  no such file, /mnt/sysimage/dev/hda2

(hda2 was my / partition; this makes it a quaint error message, since
/mnt/sysimage/dev/hda2 is only available after mounting hda2)

This happened while using the Rescue disc to upgrade (using FTP as
install medium.) I also got a crash when trying to upgrade with  the
regular install CD, and I think it was the same one. 

Finally, I did a fresh install.

I'm sorry that my report is rather sketchy. Hope this helps anyway.

Can you please provide the complete stack trace?  It's very hard for
me to figure out what's going on with only tiny little bits of it.
