Description Daniel Florey 2004-03-13 14:38:01 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1)

Description of problem:
When a package on an installation disc is corrupt anaconda cannot be 
aborted nor can the package be skipped.
It is only possible to try installation again. I had to abort 
installation by shutting down x server (ctrl-alt-backspace).
I don't know if this issue is specific to the german translation but 
I don't think so...

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
German installation

How reproducible:
Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a corrupt installation disc. It must be recognized by 
anaconda to be the right disc.
2. Try to install
3. See what happens if a package can not be loaded
    

Actual Results:  Se description

Expected Results:  Should be possible to skip package or abort 
installation and retry later.

This looks like: 
   https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=68376
again, and before that, restricted bug 
   https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30029

The arguments for not having it is that a SKIP might leave a system in
an unuseable state. Once an upgrade has started, however, it is pretty
certain that it needs to either finish somehow (which a SKIP would
do), or gracefully permit exitting and shutdown, so that a fsck is not
_also_ needed, compounding recovery problems.
