Dunno about the problems you're having ... but there's another upgrade issue
I've been seeing, if I try to upgrade my RH6.0/'98/NT/BeOS box the upgrade
falls over trying to find my last version !

It trys to mount /dev/hda1 as Linux native and falls over (not suprising
considering that /dev/hda1 is NT), it doesn't try anywhere else and I have
to use the 'vulcan nerve pinch' to get anywhere (ALT-F2 etc don't work !)

By comparison the 5.2 -> 6.0 upgrade went fine !

Any suggestions ??
