Description Eugene Kanter 1999-09-21 17:09:13 UTC

installer does not parse /etc/fstab file correctly during an
upgrade:

1. line which starts with a '#' does not get ingnored
2. there was an attempt to mount /dev/fd0 on /mnt/floppy
just because it was entered in my /etc/fstab as ext2
filesystem.
3. there was an attempt to mount /dev/hda1 on /NT as ntfs
!!!!

1 and 3 cause a catastrophic failure, 2 just an error box.

Should be fixed in latest release.
