After completing the download of the needed packages and other things, I clicked
on reboot. Grub showed me the upgrade to rawhide option. after selecting it, the
kernel booted and then the following error came up:
"An error occured reading the install from the ISO images. please check your ISO
images and try again."
the F3 console shows(after some INFO lines):
"04:36:38 ERROR : failed to open /mnt/isodirbootupgradestage2.img: No such file
or directory"
the F5 console shows "Running... /bin/mount -n -t ext3 -o ro /dev/sda3
/mnt/isodir" and that is all.
what is going on? where should I look?
An upgrade directory was created in /boot and it has the initrd.img, the
stage2.img and the zmlinuz.
Any where else I should check?
what version of preupgrade is this? 0.9.2?
-sv
I used preupgrade-0.9.2-1.fc8.noarch from F8-updates.
Michal Schmidt sent this:
"Looks like you're hit by https://fedorahosted.org/preupgrade/ticket/19
You can workaround it by adding the missing slashes manually in
grub.conf."
and my grub.conf stanza looked like this:
"title Upgrade to Rawhide
kernel /boot/upgrade/vmlinuz preupgrade lang=en_US.UTF-8 keymap=us
stage2=hd:sda3:bootupgradestage2.img
method=http://linux.nssl.noaa.gov/fedora/linux/development/i386/os
initrd /boot/upgrade/initrd.img
"
I edited the stage2= to include the slashes /boot/upgrade/stage2.img and that
worked!
the rest of the upgrade worked fine!
thanks for all the work you do.
Richard
