Description Jeson Martajaya 2001-01-27 18:35:22 UTC
I have RH6.2 in my IBM 8.4GB harddrive, along with Win2K server (FAT32) sharing the same harddrive. The partition is hdc1=Win2k 
hdc2=RH6.2, with size of 50%-50%. It was running fine under Rh6.2. However, I try to have an upgrade to RH7, but it failed. First, I chose the 
upgrade option, and it restarted by itself. Second, I chose the custom installation. I deselect the format option (to make the installation 
overwrite 
only the system files, not my data), install LILO in first partition (not MBR), and configure the Xconfig. Everything worked fine until the point 
where it started to copy the files. Then, a window pop up saying there is a bug problem, and I need to insert a blank floppy disk, and send the 
data to Bugzilla. This is the first time I get this bug. Before I installed RH7 in my laptop, and it is still running fine until now. Please reply if you 
have the solution, Thanks a lot! 

Here's what it says in its txt file:
