 Hey guys,
 
 I decided to do the upgrade (not a clean install) last night from 8.2 to
 beta 3. I had a drive in my fstab that was NOT properly formatted and thus
 could not be mounted.
 
 When the time came to select what cds I had (im assuming thats what it was
 supposed to do) a message came up that said /dev/hdb1 could not be
 mounted (which is right because it wasnt formatted). Upon clicking Okay  
 the error came back, this was an endless loop that I was unable to break
 out of (had to hard reset).
 
 I fixed the issue by rebooting into my current 8.2 installation and 
 formatting the drive.
 
 Ive been out of the community for a while, so Im not sure if this is a 
 known bug or not, but none the less I figured I would bring it to 
 attention.

it is a bug. But it shouldn't happen often... and changing this may
break a few other things, so it's a wont-fix bug for mdk 9.0

anyway, thanks for reporting it.
