Ok, i've just installed distr (Fedora 13). Solution that helped was to don't select my ATA drive as "data storage" (don't check on checkbox) at "Storage Devices Selection Screen". I have old and not working installation of fedora 5 at my ATA hdd, may it confuses anaconda? You can only install from the previous release. So to upgrade from F11 you need to first upgrade to F12. I didn't know and upgraded from F11 to F13 and all went successfully, except issue with hdds i described in bug report. I beleive issue is not related with Fedora version, it is related with "Storage Devices Selection Screen" and logic related with it. i'm 100% sure that if i upgrade from F12 to F13 i get same exception. anaconda 13.42 exception report Traceback (most recent call first): File "/usr/lib/anaconda/storage/__init__.py", line 1721, in parseFSTab raise Exception("fstab entry %s is malformed: %s" % (devspec, e)) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/storage/__init__.py", line 1316, in mountExistingSystem fsset.parseFSTab() File "/usr/lib/anaconda/upgrade.py", line 172, in upgradeMountFilesystems mountExistingSystem(anaconda, anaconda.upgradeRoot[0], allowDirty = 0) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/dispatch.py", line 205, in moveStep rc = stepFunc(self.anaconda) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/dispatch.py", line 126, in gotoNext self.moveStep() File "/usr/lib/anaconda/gui.py", line 1313, in nextClicked self.anaconda.dispatch.gotoNext() Exception: fstab entry /dev/sdb4 is malformed: scanned format (reiserfs) differs from fstab format (auto) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 599119 *** |
Created attachment 448000 [details] anaconda log Description of problem: I have system with 2 hdds: one sata and second (usual) ata. And try to upgrade from Fedora 11 to Fedora 13 using bootable dvd. First of all i wait more then 5 minutes between "Storage Devices: Basic/Specialized" and "Storage Devices Selection Screen". After "Storage Devices Selection Screen" screen i wait another 5 minutes? and after i choose "upgrade system" i get the attached exception. Also if i select "Basic storage devices" it shows only one of my 2 hdds: only ATA and no sata. If i select "Specialized storage devices" it shows sata drive too, but like bios raid (despite raid is disabled in bios). Then i get same exception in same place. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 13.42 (Fedora 13) How reproducible: I think you need mother board with Nforce 3 Ultra chipset (EP-9NDA3) and sata hdd.
