When I try to upgrade from 6.0.50 to the latest iso from gribble, it just hangs after saying: "Searching for Red Hat Linux installations" The same happened when I tried to upgrade from 6.0 to the first beta. First console shows: error opening security policy file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xserver/SecurityPolicy Glib-WARNING **: getpwuid_r(): failed due to: No such user 0. Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/gtk.py", line 120, in __call__ ret = apply(seld.func, a) File "/usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/gui.py", line 183, in nextClicked self.setScreen (self.currentScreen, self.nextClicked) File "/usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/gui.py", line 216, in setScreen new_screen = screen.getScreen () File "/mnt/redhat/comps/install/6.1/i386/RedHat/instimage/uuse/lib/python1.5/site-packages/iw/examine.py", line 30, in getScreen File "/usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/todo.py", line 924, in upgradeFindRoot self.intf.messageWindow(_("Error"), _("Error mounting %s: %s") %(device, msg)) NameError: device and on console 4 i get: <4>VFS: Can't find an ext2 filesystem on dev ide0(3,1)
I'm not 100% sure, but I guess this is the known NTFS bug in the installer, so this could probably be closed Kjartan Maraas
does this still occur using 6.2?
this should be fixed in 6.2 ... please reopen if still a problem ... thanks for your report!
