Re: live medium installer remounting medium
Hmm....I had a similar problem with the installer, though in my case I
had put the installation DVD image on a thumb drive. Everything worked
fine up to a point. Then I had to do something a little out of the
ordinary and the same thing happened to me...it wanted to remount the
the file system but tried to do so from /dev/sr0, assuming I guess that
was where the medium was. It refused to remount from the thumb drive. I
suspect that this does need to be reported so that it can be
addressed...It is way to late for me to do so as it was some time ago,
and I haven't preserved enough information about the situation to be of
much help in a bug report.

This happens, because the installer tries to mount the medium again. It tries to mount /dev/sr0. But there is no /dev/srv0 because the medium is available as mounted nfs.
