perhaps harmless, but the installer appears to halt

1) upgrade
2) choose wd0
3) command fails -> continue
4) try mounting it anyway?

if no, installer halts, which is what I always answered.

if yes, i get another error on sd0e, then continue again.... and then 
indeed I was able to continue, install... and upgrade and get a usable, 
updated 9.3. Boot manager is correctly BIOS 9.3... all looks fine

You must admit it is not exactly user friendly. Can you or Martin file a 
bug giving a description of what is happening? I tihnk I understood but 
not enough to write a bug report. Put me in CC, so I can follow it.

about how 9.3 performs here, I'll report later.

Thanks!
