anaconda dump file from install
Attempted a headless install: Configured boot floppy to append: console=ttyS0,38400n8 to default install Removed keyboard and mouse Anaconda still called the X hardware state routines. This resulted in the install crash as described above. Attempted 2nd headless install with video card removed. This time the installer ran as expected and I was able to complete the install. System now runs as expected. This leads to the question: Why does the installer attempt to determine values for running X when the install scenario implies we do NOT want to run X? This shouldn't be relevant in current releases of Fedora Core as the monitor step is no longer included. |
