https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=216046 ------- Comment #3 from gdoig@pcug.org.au 2006-10-31 06:51 MST ------- I found some more detail: I switched to the consone and did a 'mount' to list all the mount points - There was NO output at all. I found this very strange nothing showed up at all. The cd is located in /dev/hda Question: Can I manually get the cd mounted to a location ??? which will work when I continue the install. My plan is: Start install and goto console (Ctl-Alt-F2) # mount /dev/hda ??? Switch back to Gui(Alt-F7) Install screen and retry the operation. Can you help please with what target location I should use ? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
