I tryed to upgrade the fc6 with the Fedora 7 DVD.
Installation menu offered the upgrade of the recent
version on hda2, but after my choose that version I got an
error message:
Error mounting device hda2 as / : no such file or directory
devices in /etc/fstab .
Should be specified by label, not by device name.
Click to reboot.
What can I do?
You can do any of the below two things.
1. Boot with the rescue CD and change /dev/hdXX in /etc/fstab to /dev/sdXX.
2. Boot with the rescue CD and use 'e2label' to give each partition an
appropriate label. Then update /etc/fstab on the root partition with the
new labels in the format 'LABEL=<partition label>'
Also read section 5.3 of Fedora 7 release notes.
