What kind of RAID were you trying (0, 1, 5)? Can you tell me the steps to reproduce this bug?
Steps: 1) insert floppy 2) poweron 3) select mousetype 4) boom I was not using RAID at that time as one of the disks was in my other machine :) It was RAID0 before that. (eg disklayout: hda = main disk, 40 Gb hde = testdisk 1, with 1 raid0 partition from an _oooold_ installation (eg unused for a long time now) hdg = testdisk 2,
Ok, I think I see the problem here. When you do an upgrade, the installer looks for all existing linux installations, and then gives you the choice of what partition you want to start the upgrade on. From looking at the traceback, it looks like it finds the RAID 0 partition on hde1, but it is looking for the other raid partition somewhere and it is crashing when it cannot find it. The actual error message is totally misleading, however. I think I can reproduce this on a test machine. For a workaround, though, I would recommend removing the RAID partition on hde and then doing the upgrade. But anyway, this is a case that we should check for and do something better than traceback.
agreed. I worked around it by unplugging the disk ;)
