    Can you show the contents of /etc/fstab file ? do yuo have a vxfs filesystem getting mounted  ? if yes, try unmounting the vxfs filesystem & try again.

    I believe the installer internally uses the swinstall option:

    mount_all_filesystems=true

    while installing packages (for 6.0.1). You may rerun the installer for 6.0.1 by just commenting the entries for all the user-created filesystem(s) in /etc/fstab. Once the installer completes, uncomment those FS entries and use 'mount -a' to mount them back under 6.0.1 version.
