</I>
Well, in fact I wanted to update to mageia 1. Unfortunately the urpmi incantation in the wiki failed, and next time I invoked it, without me realizing it, it switched the repositories to mageia 2. Of course that didn't work (&quot;kernel too old&quot;) so it resulted in a half-upgraded, unbootable system.
I used the network boot cd to attempt an upgrade from the installer, but that complained I had not enough space.
Luckily enough, I managed to use the console in the installer (no, the &quot;rescue&quot; option didn't work) to chroot to the old system and complete the urpmi update (by removing some big packages to recover some space).

&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> For any file system where you want the boot to continue, instead of dropping
</I>&gt;<i> to a shell, add the nofail option in /etc/fstab.
</I>
noted for next time

&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> As to ntfs not mounting, make sure the following packages are installed ...
</I>&gt;<i> ntfs-3g fuse libfuse2
</I>
yep, everything installed, those partition mounted fine for several years

&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> Confirm you can then mount the ntfs partition.  Once you're able to mount it
</I>&gt;<i> in a regular running session, as root run &quot;dracut -f&quot;, to update the initrd
</I>&gt;<i> file.
</I>
Well, it seems the solution was to remove the &quot;0 0&quot; at the end of the fstab lines with those partitions.
Love the supposed systemd backwards compatibility....

&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> Regards, Dave Hodgins

Thank you.

Bye
