It looks like you are trying to mount a partition labeled dvd using a mount point of /dev/scd - this is why you are getting the mounting error. You should never have mount points in the /dev directory tree! The floppy entry will also cause you problems. I am not sure what the fix is, because you do not say how you are trying to do the upgrade. You may be okay if you delete the floppy and dvd lines from /etc/fstab and try again. Or you may have to fix the dvd line to use something like /mnt/dvd instead of /dev/scd, and create a /mnt/dvd directory to use as a mount point. -- Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for thou art crunchy and taste good with Ketchup!
