The upgrade script tries to read your old fstab(5) and fsck(8) your
existing file systems.
wd1* is attached when your drive is there. when you replace it with a
ROM it goes away.
The same error would happen if you booted the system w/o the 250
attached in 3.8.
Just comment out wd1* entries in your fstab(8) before you boot into the
install CD.
We're assuming here that wd1* contains data-only and no system
partitions.
