Bug Description
I was upgrading from edgy knot3 to beta. I was using the alternate install CD.
I chose to install clean, formating my /boot (ext3), / (xfs), and mount my lvm. The text based installer couldn't format my /. I switched to a vt and tried to manually do "mkfs.xfs /dev/hda2" but it gave me an error about missing librt.so.1.
Since my existing /dev/hda2 hadn't been formatted yet, I mounted it, coppied over librt.so.1 and librt-2.4.so (since the first was just a symlink to the 2nd), then unmounted it and tried again. All was fine.
