Description André Johansen 2000-04-03 14:18:19 UTC
I tried to upgrade my system from Red Hat Linux v6.1 to Red Hat Linux v6.2.
After a custom-upgrade, the installer checks for free space; at this stage
it reported back that xx MBs was needed, and the froze. Back didn't work, nor
did help or any other function in the (graphical) installer.

Notice that the system didn't freeze, I had full access to the virtual consoles.
The solution was to free up space on the HD and rerun the installer
(boring with a custom-package selection ;)
