FYI: In-place upgrades across major releases do not preserve all system settings, services, and custom configurations. For this reason, Red Hat strongly recommends that you perform a fresh installation rather than a system upgrade between major versions. Upgrade is to be used for minor versions. Was this an upgrade for a mayor release of between minor releses? this's not the case here. it's an rhel 5.1 to rhel-5.2 update which we like to made from kickstart generated cd image. so actually here nothing change. what's more this crash is before anything started. it's at the stage when anaconda try to mount the filesystems/partitions. it's your own RHEL rebuild (not CentOS/SL and definitely not RH) according to the logs... it compiled from rhel src.rpm, and it's an anaconda EVR bug but we already found a workaround so it's no longer a problem for us. so you can close this bug. |
