Description Lars Müller 2005-10-12 11:05:11 UTC 
A customr tried to update his 9.1 to 10.0 while booting from disk.

It looks like the hard disk is to full.  But YaST complains with a different
errror message about a broken or wrong package selection.

He checked the media with checkmedia.

The logs are created on the way described at openSUSE.org.

I'll ask the user for a more detailed error message and the time when it happened.
Comment 4 Lars Müller 2005-10-12 15:33:48 UTC 
The error message shown by YaST was:

Stefan: You have been right.  He tried an update from inside the 9.1 system.

We should provide a more verbose warnung/ error message in this case.
