Please try this with the Fedora 15 Beta, found here: http://fedoraproject.org/get-prerelease and report the results. We aren't going to be fixing Fedora 14 installation bugs at this point.

This bug/error was experienced with Fedora 15 official x86_64 release both trying preupgrade originally and then the DVD in upgrade mode on the same machine. I would like to know if there is a work around for this error or do I have some non-standard configuration on my machine I could tweak to allow an upgrade? Because I'd rather not have to do a clean install as I have a few machines to upgrade in a similar manner.

It looks like you have your root entry in /etc/fstab marked as "noauto", which is not reasonable as far as I can tell. Anaconda will completely ignore any fstab entries marked as "noauto" when parsing the fstab to see the layout for the upgrade, since that option indicates that the filesystem is non-essential. If you remove that option from all required filesystems' fstab entries you should be able to upgrade.
It was pointed out to me that you don't actually have root as a noauto filesystem -- it's some other option that we don't handle correctly. Try adding the following option to the boot command line: updates=http://dlehman.fedorapeople.org/updates-699167.img The above URL points to an image containing a potential fix to the installer for your problem.
I am happy to report that the fix you suggested did work fine from a preupgrade installation. Thank you very much. If you need any other info or help from me, don't hesitate to ask.
