Reassigning to anaconda, as the error seems to be an anaconda problem.

The title of this bug is immensely confusing; what information are you trying to
convey with it?

Comment 2 Jeremy Katz 2005-03-22 19:20:47 UTC
What is Scientific Linux?  Where is the updates.img you're using from?

The base SL distribution is basically Enterprise Linux, recompiled from 
source.you can find explainations on https://www.scientificlinux.org

You'll need to report this problem there.  They've made changes to the stock
stuff we distribute and it's impossible for us to support that.
