Upgrade glitch

[Duncan Hill <dhill sunbeach net>]

Ran into an interesting glitch when doing an upgrade from 5.2 to 6.0.
My fstab contained an entry that mounted the drive that I had the 6.0
distribution on (hard drive install).  When the installer went to
mount that partition on /tmp/hdimage, it failed miserably because it
had already mounted the drive according to the fstab.  It then
promptly unmounted all of the file systems.  Would have been nice to
be able to manually unmount the offending partition and let the setup
try again (or make the installer ask which partitions it can mount [
with say an expert user toggle at the start]). Had to reboot, bring up
5.2, edit the fstab and reboot again..
