Hi,
I'm trying to upgrade from FC4 to FC6 before this DST bug hits...
I boot the FC6 installer, get to anaconda where I can select the upgrade, and I get a dialog box that says:
"Multiple devices on your system are labeled k?;[]qu??lqBs,?|. Labels across devices must be unique for your system to function properly. Please fix this problem and restart the installation process."
The "[]" in that is actually a unicode box with the numbers 0,0,1,3 in it. Anyway, I certainly didn't manually label any of my filesystems with that string. Here's my /etc/fstab:
/dev/md0 / ext3 defaults 1 1
/dev/sda1 /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
/dev/shm /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
/dev/proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/sys /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
/dev/sda2 swap swap pri=1 0 0
/dev/sdb2 swap swap pri=1 0 0
/dev/sdc2 swap swap pri=1 0 0
/dev/sdd1 /media/usbdisk ext2 pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,utf8,managed 0 0
/dev/hda /media/cdrecorder auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0
/dev/md0 is labeled "md0" and /dev/sda1 is labeled "/boot", although those names aren't used in /etc/fstab.
I think the problem is that / is RAID5 and on /dev/md0, and if anaconda is going through all partitions in the system and running "e2label" on each of them, it'll see that /dev/sda3 and /dev/sdc3 return the same value: "md0", due to the RAID configuration. But, that doesn't jive with the wacky label printed in the dialog box (above). When it says "label" I assume its referring to the e2label, is that true? Is it possible to label a swap partition?
Any help on how to get around this would be greatly appreciated.
