Description of problem: Booting Rescue mode on a box with two root partitions (Fedora 12 on one, Fedora 13 on the other) does not offer a choice of which partition to be rescued.  It always chooses the first root partition.  In this case that had Fedora 12, but I wanted to rescue the other partition with Fedora 13.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
anaconda-13.32 of Fedora-13-x86_64-Alpha-RC4

How reproducible: every time


Steps to Reproduce:
1. boot Rescue mode on box with two root partitions
2.
3.
  
Actual results: No choice about which root gets mounted on /mnt/sysimage.


Expected results: Chooser box of root partitions

Comment 5 David Lehman 2010-03-02 19:55:47 UTC
Some of your partitions were mis-identified as containing msdos disklabels, so we never mounted them as filesystems to see if they contained a root filesystem. This will be fixed in the next build of anaconda, and was handled in bug 567832.
