Description of problem: I try to upgrade a FC6 box to F7 with the DVD. I boot from DVD, and after choosing "Upgrade existing installation" (which is correctly found with root filesystem on /dev/md3) I get the error message: Error enabling swap device hda5: No such file or directory The /etc/fstab on your upgrade partition does not reference a valid swap partition. Press OK to reboot your system. Changing to a shell with CTRL-ALT-F2 and doing "grep swap /mnt/sysimage/etc/fstab" gives this: LABEL=swapa swap swap defaults 0 0 LABEL=swapb swap swap defaults 0 0 /proc/swaps is empty. The hard disks where the RAID partitions reside on are /dev/sda and /dev/sdb. On FC6 they were hda and hdb. All paretition are mounted via labels. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot from installation DVD 2. Choose upgrade install 3. Actual results: Doens't install. Expected results: Swap partitions should be detected using their labels. Additional info:
OK, seems I got it. The root filesystem was NOT detected correctly though it looked like that. It had md2 and md3 as possible upgrade canditates. md3 was just a data partition, no idea how that can be detected. The mounted sysimage was correct, though. When choosing md2 for upgrading it works.
