Description Stuart Anderson 2004-02-13 19:30:29 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040113

Description of problem:
After verifying the first CD for the Feb 12 release
of Fedora Core 2 Test 1 the installation process
crashes on a blue screen with the message:
"install exited abnormally --received siganl 11"

ctrl-alt-4 ends with:
<4>Unable to identify CD-ROM format.
<4>VFS: Can't find ext2 filesystem on dev loop0.

This is being run on a Dell Latitude C640 with
no PCMCIA cards(except the built in wireless and CAT-5 connection),
one battery and one cdrom drive.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Not sure what kernel the installation script process uses

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Insert disk 1 of FC2-Test1
2.hit enter to start installation
3.Either verify (successfully) or skip the media check
    

Actual Results:  blue screen of death

Expected Results:  Start installation program

Additional info:

Booting the installation disk with either
linux ide=nodma
or
linux allowcddma
do not change the problem.

Same problem on my Dell Inspiron 8200.

The same symptoms occur using the boot.iso image after selecting a
language.
