Trying to upgrade Mandrake 8.2 to latest Mandrake 9.2RC2
I ran the installation 3 times. It didn't ask me if i want to upgrade or just
install (it assumed i wanted to install). It didn't correctly find the mount
point of my existing partitions.
Then i tried this: i followed the install until i reached the partitionning
("partionnement" in french). Then I tell the install program where should every
partition be mounted. Next, i carefully tell him not to format anything. It
verified the partitions. I then rebooted and finaly, it worked! It detected
succesfully my existing installation and asked me if i wanted to upgrade or install
I'm now going to upgrade... :)
note: my HD is partitionned like this:
Disque /dev/hda : 255 têtes, 63 secteurs, 2432 cylindres
Unités = cylindres sur 16065 * 512 octets
Périphérique Amorce Début Fin Blocs Id Système
