It's too early to be writing mails. Sysinstall lives in mfs at first, and then tries to figure out what to mount for the other stuff. I suppose that's the stage that goes wonky - maybe we need more code in the heuristic that determines what "actual root" is... Still, detailed error message/behavior reports would go a long way ;)
