Each partition has a different label. I am still having problems, the media issue was not relevant. If I use RESCUE mode the program sees both of my partitions and asks which one I want. It's the graphical phase of anaconda that completely ignores them. I have fscked the partitions and rebuilt the rpm database. Can someone tell me what the install is looking for? TIA -Robin. --
