    Still no luck. I've even formatted the disk with the recommended
    partition structure of 7.3 under a running 7.1, and created some files.
    Then tried to get the 7.3 install to play nice with the disk. The install
    gets to the point of mounting the disk partitions, and says they won't
    mount to /mnt/ and /mnt/boot.

    Is there any way to see an error log for the YasT install process which
    would give me more clues?
