>Organization:
Key Internet Srvices
>Environment:

trying to up garade a box running 2.2-980204-SNAP to 2.2.6-980315-BETA using
upgrade procedure on boot.flp . Machine is a intel p166 32M ram 2gig hdd ,
( first 850M is a dos partition, fat 16 )
  
>Description:

partition editor only recognises my dos partition 
we tried exiting the upgrade and going to a custom 
install , opening fdisk and closing it with out 
changing anything and went back to the upgrade
still didn't see the unix partitions , I tried using auto
as that is what I had originaly set my box up with
and i thought it would go back to the original settings.
I chose Q for Quit , the installer tried to fsck the drive
but died with floating point execption . I then tried to 
reboot from the hard drive and it refused to reboot 
claiming it was an invalid slice .
