This is fixed in CVS. How do I create a new FC3 install DVD with the CVS version of the installer? Thanks, John |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040914 Firefox/0.10 Description of problem: If pre-existing JFS partions are available on the system, when trying to install Fedora Core 3, installation crashes. This happens even when NOT trying to install anything on those JFS partitions. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): FC3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Pre-existing Fedora Core 2 install, with some JFS partitions. 2. Try installing Fedora Core 3 on different partition(s) except the one for "home". Home is *not* formated as JFS.
