Are all of the usual directories in / all on different LVs? Incl.
/etc, /bin and /sbin?

I had no problem doing the upgrade, but I have /etc, bin and /sbin in
the root partition itself, not on LV. Otherwise, my /var and /usr are
on LVs.

I guess, the installer does not mount the filesystems, so it can not
find /etc, /bin and /sbin.

A workaround will be to copy these partitions into directories of /,
and then retry.
