Attempting installing the anaconda fix without result. I suspect that this bug is a duplicate of bug #21904. What kind of video card does the system have and what did anaconda probe the card to be? Also, did you change the video card selection from what anaconda probed? A potential workaround is to skip configuring X in the install and use Xconfigurator once the system reboots. I'm looking into a better solution. |
After post intallation completes the bug window opens. After saving and clicking ok the system reboots. When the kernel reboots the kernal begins to load and the dots get to about 6 or so you know ........ Then hangs. Here's the bug stuff. The system is a Hewlett Packard E60 Server with 128M. Adaptec 74xxx series SCSI controller. No indications of any problems at all until the bug window appears after post intallation.
