Dump file from the unhandled exception
I have tried to install again and this time it let me start the graphical installer, but once I get to the package selection screen, it will hang and the screen will just show colors. The screen looks like static on a tv except in color. This should be fixed with newer trees. If you remove the first five megs or so (with dd of /dev/zero) of the partitions you're using, that should fix things. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.0.3705; .NET CLR 1.1.4322) Description of problem: I tried installing Fedora Core 3 on my system, and when I tried the graphical install, all I got was colored lines on the screen. While the colored lines were very pretty, I could not do anything. So, I tried the text installation, and got much further, but when I selected which packages to install, I got an error. I saved the dump and it is attached. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1.Run text install on FC 3 2.Select US everything 3.Select server install 4.Select all packages Additional info:
