I suspect sysinst doesn't deal with ccd on upgrade as well, it doesn't
configure them. If no system partitions are on the ccd, then it's possible
to remove them from fstab for the upgrade.
Otherwise, the solution is probably to exist sysinst, configure the ccd
(hopefully the INSTALL kernel supports it, and ccdconfig is on the install
media) and restat sysinst.

What options did you use for dump ?
restore -b 10 will probably work ...
