Something is very odd here. It looks like you've still got your old RH9 packages around. At this point, I'd take a good backup. You could try running the FC2 upgrade again. How, exactly, are your disks organised? Could you post the output of fdisk -l /dev/hda and for i in $(fdisk -l /dev/hda | egrep ^/dev/ | cut -d\ -f1) ; do echo $i ; e2label $i 2>/dev/null ; done and /etc/fstab? (If you have any other disks, can you do the same for them?) (Does anyone know of a better way of showing which devices have which labels? At this time of night, I can't think of one...)
