Another Bug 1031638 also reported similar issue but the bug was closed due to insufficient information. Please let me know if any more info/logs are needed.. Based on the log: 14:30:15,132 INFO kernel:[ 51.692908] anaconda[1684]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f5005ef9490 sp 00007fff6dec8f70 error 4 in libiscsi.so.0[7f5005ef5000+44000] Reassinging to iscsi-initiator-utils, which owns libisci. Possibly the same issue as bug 1065793. *** Bug 1094883 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** is there a workaround? I need to install Fedora 20. I have a license for RHEL but there is no sign of a release date. I don't want to change the horse in the middle of the stream, I mean, change distribution. Can somebody help? I want to conform that RHE7 Release Candidate does install just fine in the same box. (In reply to Alves from comment #4) > is there a workaround? I need to install Fedora 20.

Can you test an updated installer image? I think this problem is fixed in an iscsi-initiator-utils update, but the installer needs to be regenerated with the updated rpm. I've made a test installer with integrated updates for F20 available here http://cleech.fedorapeople.org/Fedora-20-x86_64-boot-20140507.iso If you don't need to install to an iSCSI disk, you should also be able to work around this by blacklisting the drivers from the command line with "modprobe.blacklist=cnic,bnx2i" The installer works fine. Many thanks |
