What words or

to refuse your command?
It doesn't refuse per say, but ignores the enter key to proceed. root@coyote:/etc/init.d# df

That's the current state of your system, not what you
had told the installer.
Maybe the installer should be able to read and use your
old configuration but I don't think it does.
Are you sure you told it which partition to use for / ?
