It was a mount for the USB connection for the camera. I deleted the fstab entry and all worked well. It didn't dawn on me until later. Thats what happens when you rush.Robin Laing wrote:

Either there is something in /etc/fstab that tries to mount a device recognized as /mnt/pix or you added something to your config files for startup to mount this device. (/etc/rc.local or another similar file)
If you know where the /dev/pix mount request is coming from, remove the reference or comment it out until after the install.
By the name for the mount, it sounds like a camera device.

No such file or directory
This most likely means this partition has not been formatted.
Press OK to reboot your system.

I don't have a scsi drive or controller (sda1) so I would assume that the install is trying to use the CD rom or the partition that my RH 8 is installed on and is having problems with linking.
This error occurs in either graphical or text install attempts at the same location.
I guess I will hold off on Fedora until I hear an answer.
CD have been tested using the install test routine and all have been confirmed.
Now to fix the real problem. Upgrading the kernel when the PS died later that afternoon. Thank anyone for the emergency disk. New PS is supposed to be here today. I hate service contracts.
