The following page has been changed by PaulFrields:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/Installer?action=diff&rev2=114&rev1=113

The comment on the change is:
Include note about LVM

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  
  ==== Disk partitions must be labelled ====
  
- A change in the way that the linux kernel handles storage devices means that device names like `/dev/hdX` or `/dev/sdX` may differ from the values used in earlier releases. '''Anaconda''' solves this problem by relying on partition labels. If these labels are not present, then '''Anaconda''' presents a warning indicating that partitions need to be labelled and that the upgrade can not proceed.

Systems that use Logical Volume Management (LVM) and the device mapper usually do not require relabeling.
