That is a strange mount point. (/mnt/mnt) I would check to make sure you
have a /mnt/mnt directory. In the long run, I think you would be better
off creating a /mnt/windows directory, and editing /etc/fstab to reflect
that mount point for the Windows partition.

The OP should have asked on the cooker ML. I've seen this
problem reported an I think there's a bug report on it. So Walt
search the cooker archive an bugzilla. IIRC it was reported for
raid systems, or maybe booting from an sata drive when installing
the beta.
Also if you're going to run cooker you should sub$cribe to to
cooker ML and the changelog (CHRPM) lists. Install cooker media
sources an update daily. MOF, if you've got cooker sources, you
could just use urpmi to update 2005 to 2006. I'd suggest at least
two N European mirrors for both main an contrib. uninett.no should
be one'a them. Then to update use,
'urpmi.update -caf && urpmi --auto-select -v --keep'
