Hi, having some trouble upgrading 7.3 to 8.0 on a friends box. The problem is that the installer claims that there's no where to install / upgrade to. /dev/hda is a Qunatum fireball as30.0, on a Abit BH6 mobo.
Sure seems like the installer sees the drive, if I change to a virtual console during install /proc/ide/hda has a whole of files describing the drive, but I can not install to it. Lilo is installed on /dev/hda, XP is installed on /dev/hda1. I believe /dev/hda5 is /boot, and /dev/hda6 is /, although I'm not sure. Is there any way that XP could be messing up the installer, or a weird partitioning scheme? Any suggestions? Nathan Wiebe
