Description Aleksey Nogin 2001-10-20 17:38:30 UTC 
If during an FTP upgrade I choose not to customize the set of packages to
be installed and it later turns out that the default set would not fit on
one of the filesystems, there is no way to go back and specify that I now
want to have a smaller set of packages installed. I can go back a few steps
but I hit the "can not unmount the filesystems" before I get to the menu
that asks whether i would like to customize the set of packages.

P.S. This bug together with bug 54840 (no way to abort the upgrade)
basically means that the upgrade is completely stuck with no chance to
escape...

Yes, there are currently some limitations with upgrading.  Basically, if you are
upgrading a system that doesn't have much free space left, it's possible to get
in the situation that you hit.  katzj and msf, anything we can do here?
