Hi
I have had FC10 working surprisingly well as a web server for months
on an Asus EeePC (Intel Atom bases mini PC) but an upgrade to FC11
failed so I have had to restart from scratch. The EeePC has no
optical drive and I have tried using both a 4GB USB key and USB hard
drive. I tried both livecd-tools and Unetbootin to create a bootable
USB drive. In every attempt anaconda runs but after I get through
the partitioning stage it creates a file system and then fails with
an error message that it cannot mount the ISO source,
usually /dev/sdb1.

Am I doing something dumb, is there a bug? Should I try reinstalling
FC10 and upgrading to FC11 instead?

Does the error look anything like any of the ones at:

All advice gratefully received.

If you have another linux machine there you could setup as a PXE
server, you could pxeboot the machine and net install it. ;)
