I am using a 2.2.5 boot floppy. The install starts out fine, I have had a few problems coping /etc to a safe place, but then i started to backup /etc before the upgrade to make sure i have a safe copy. At some point / gets full, it seems the upgrade is coping al the files to /mnt/ but the original dirves are not mounted on /mnt/ ? Has anyone else experienced a similar problem? - zeus
