Description of problem: When upgrading a FC6 box to FC7 with the DVD, choosing "Upgrade existing installation" (which is correctly found with root file system on /dev/sda3, the following error message is displayed: Error enabling swap device hda2: 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. My swap is not mounted using a label, ie: /dev/hda2 swap swap defaults 0 0 The quick fix was to boot back into the FC6 system, and change the above entry to: /dev/sda2 swap swap defaults 0 0 Then immediately boot to the DVD, and the install worked. Seems like a beginner user might have a tough time figuring this out. This is similar to a bug report (Closed): https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=249392 Unlike above, this bug seems to be real, as I only have one choice for upgrading: /dev/sda3. Also no RAID is on this system. Seems like an issue with the change to libata device naming. How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot from installation DVD 2. Choose upgrade Actual results: Doesn't install.
