Which partion does it think is your root partition? The 3 partitions given to choose as the root partition are: /dev/hdb1 /dev/hdd5 /dev/hdd6 Additionally, the logs on Console 3 show that those are the only 3 partitions that are mounted, scanned, and then unmounted. I presume it is scanning for a candidate for root? No attempts are ever made to look at the partitions on hda. RedHat 6.1 did not have the same problem with the /etc/fstab. I was able to upgrade my system to version 6.1. Though the installer had a slight hic-cup with the large number of partitions. |
