[Cooker] Warning: Not sure, but Gnome or Nautilus update may have crash the system. Root Gone!

[David Babcock]

Not sure which one did it at this moment and maybe it wasn't them, but after updating some packages for beta3 this afternoon about 3pm CST USA, noticed that after updating with Software Manager that Gnome Desktop was acting strangely. Couldn't open the Trashbin (screen would kindof flash  and then just desktop still there), If opened my Home Folder, noticed the same home folder icon from desktop in there (can't remember, may have been there before), tried the home folder several times and about 80% of the time Nautilus would complain about the History side bar. Then maybe the next time it would work. Also couldn't open the trash folder from there either.   Then the worst part happened. I decided to reboot. Complete system crash!!!! Figured that everything should be there and would try to rescue from the CD, didn't do much cause in my /etc folder noticed a lot of folders missing.    So decided to do a Expert Upgrade from the Installation CD. It only gets to 'setup filesystems' then tells me the bad news: 'an error occurred: No root partition found to perform an upgrade.' Clicked OK and it just started looking for root again.   Going to take awhile to figure out which package did it. After I reinstall only going to do a package or two and reboot each time, unless someone has a clue. Everything was pretty much working really well, updates fixed a lot of problems, upgrade to rpmdrake fixed getting the upgrades,.... Now complete crash. I think it was Nautilus, wish I knew. I also wish they would just take Nautilus completely out of the picture it is nothing but trouble.
