The root partition now has 6.9Gb available. I checked the iso md5 checksum, it is correct. I re-burned the CD at slowest speed possible (though in truth this seemed nonsensical). Upgrade dies in the exact same place, about 75% of the way through coping the inital install image to the hard drive. This installation has the following partition table: hda1 /boot 200Mb hda2 /usr 10Gb hda3 swap 1Gb hda5..8 non-system partitions I'm left feeling that it is trying to copy the install image to hda1 /boot. It dies in just a few minutes and is during the copy so it can't be that much data. Any want to prove or disprove this? log level?
