	Well, X is not installed on that machine's hard disk, but it has
	a symbolic link to file server, e.g. /usr/X11R6 -> /some/where/X11R6.  
	So this link is a dangling link when sysinst mounts this
	partition.  Similarly, it has a /emul symbolic link.  Is there
	any possibility that these dangling symlinks cause the termination
	of sysinst?
