Hey,
I'm attempting to upgrade from FC2 Test 3 to FC2 Final on my work PC.
I have only 1 SCSI hd which includes a swap partition.

   Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 10 80293+ 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 11 265 2048287+ 82 Linux swap
/dev/sda3 266 8924 69553417+ 83 Linux

The update recognises the fc2t3 installation on sda3 but refuses to see the
swap on sda2
a dialog tells me that the swap on hda2 doesn't exist and only let's me
reboot.
I'm stuck!!
Is there an option which allows me the specify the swap dev for the
install??

Thanks in advance...
