Description Trond Eivind Glomsrød 1999-09-18 22:38:22 UTC 
lorax 0914, HD-upgrade from /dev/hda1 (FAT32), second disk
with two NTFS and one VFAT-partition present. Several ext2-
partitions on /dev/hda (RH 6.0).

findroot failed  (/usr/bin/anaconda.real, line 209. init.run
(todo,test=real)   - NameError: device) - not totally sure
about the function call, I'm having trouble reading the
notes) when it tried locating a previous install.

When I removed the second disk, everything worked.
