Description of problem: trying to upgrade a Sony vgn-a190 laptop w FC-4, to FC-5. I get exception, which I cannot save to floppy (dont have one). heres the gist of it: fsset.py line 1050, inMount errNum refd b4 assignment device: /dev/fd0 bindMount: False ...//mnt/floppy It looks a bit like its croaking cuz it cant mount the floppy, which obscures the root problem. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. boot from dvd 2. linux or linux text 3. croaks after selecting upgrade Actual results: Expected results: Additional info: I dont have a usb-drive, so I cant test whether that would appear automatically as a floppy, would it ? Thus uncovering the root error ?
I borrowed a usb-drive, saw usb-storage load early, still got same exception, and no opportunity to save debug-info to drive.
