Bug 158158

Note:  I'm not convinced this is a blocker since the hardware is not at all common

http://videl.ics.hawaii.edu/~warren/temp/anacdump.txt
Anaconda crash with dump when clicking on Next on the boot loader screen.  This
happened with Rawhide 20050519 but not 20050518.  pjones said to attach it here
anyway.

pjones found that the bug in #2 was already fixed in tomorrow's rawhide.  He
suggested "cp anaconda/iw/network_gui.py RHupdates" but it didn't seem to work.
 When was the last time this was tested?

I managed to workaround the problem by manually copying network_gui.py into
/tmp/updates/

Oh, msw said RHupdates doesn't work for FTP.

device.map

Apache screwed up the device.map, it actually looks like this:

# this device map was generated by anaconda
(fd0)     /dev/fd0
(hd0)     /dev/i2o/hda

/sbin/grub-install /dev/i2o/hda
 /dev/root: Not found or not a block device.

grub-install fails when done from chroot after installation is complete.  But it
worked after reboot into rescue mode.

Testing a reinstall now without modifying the partition table.

Failed after reinstall (without modifying the partition table)

Hopefully fixed in grub-0.95-13 , building for rawhide now.

I suspect this might need to be backported to RHEL4.  I will test.

- don't treat i2o like a cciss device, since its partition names aren't done
  that way. (#158158)
