From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.2-2 i686; Nav) Description of problem: Installer runs fine until it's time to install packages. Then says one or more file systems have not been cleanly unmounted, even though I did a halt or reboot as root in 6.2. Screens 2 and 4 indicate that it is reading hdd which is the zip drive (empty) . I put a vfat zip in and it says to run fsck. I will try a linux formatted disk tomorrow. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Halt system 6.2 2. Run 7.1 installer from CD, answer questions 3. Says one or more file systems not cleaning unmounted. 4. HIt OK and it reboots Actual Results: reboot Expected Results: I would like to continue the install. Additional info: I can't upgrade until I can figure this out.
Can you attach the /etc/fstab file of your 6.2 system? Also, the output of 'fdisk -l /dev/hda' and 'mount' would be helpful too.
Created attachment 18470 [details] fstab file
When I do fdisk on /dev/hdd /dev/hdd4 NOT hda that you indicated it has a * on the BOOT disk. I don't know where this comes from?
Do any of the partitions on your system other than / contain an /etc/fstab file?

Resolved. Although I could not find any errors about filesystems being not cleanly unmounted, and 6.2 system worked fine. 1. Reboot with linux -b 2. Enter root password 3. fsck /dev/sdb1 ---Several errors found 4. Install is currently running
