What is that partition?
Is that "usb" device available (as sd0) during your upgrade experiment?

If you boot the installer from a USB disk, that might become sd0 and
things will go awfully wrong. This still is a bug - sysinst should recognize
the device clash, but I'm pretty sure there currently is no such code.

Maybe you could try commenting that partition out in /etc/fstab, do the upgrade
and later manually enable it again?
