Gzipped anacdump.txt (slightly truncated due to bad floppy disk)
Anaconda expects the contents of fstab to match your hard disk layout - have you tried bind mounts that should work - something like this in fstab rather than symlinks (remove the symlinks and create the dirs): /var /data/var none bind 0 0 /tmp /data/tmp none bind 0 0 Oh, I'm so embarrassed- my relative symlinks are wrong. I have them pointing like this /tmp -> ../data/tmp instead of /tmp -> data/tmp When the root device is mounted as /, this works as the '..' part is ignored, but if you're NOT mounting it there, well... I've changed it and will try the install again, but in any case we're probably safe in closing this one. Is there a SUBMITTERISANIDIOT flag? |
