Please attach your /tmp/anacdump.txt file to this report. I can't seem to catch it. As soon as the error happens everything unmounts and the terminal on tty2 locks. Is there any other way to get to this file? I have found that using cdrecord with the following options has created working cd images "cdrecord dev=/dev/hdd -dao -eject speed=52 driveropts=noburnfree FC4-i386-disc1.iso". Closing based on previous comment. Perhaps we need to add this sort of information to the documentation for future reference. *** Bug 162659 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** why is Bug 162659 considered similar to this one ??? they seem quite different beasts ... I am having the same issues as the original submitter (sha1 OK, media check fails). I burned it with CD Burner XP Pro on Windows XP. What can cause the burning program to cripple my installation disks for no obvious reason? |
Description of problem: Cannot install a fresh version FC4 with the graphical install or the text install. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Fails every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Download and check the ISO's against Fedora's sha1 sums 2. Burn the ISO's to cds 3. Boot off the cds and let anaconda try to run Actual results: Running anaconda, the Fedora Core system installer - please wait... 'import site' failed; use -v for traceback Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/anaconda", line 358, in ? from exception import handleException File "/usr/lib/anaconda/exception.py", line 24, in ? import rpm File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/rpm/__init__.py", line 7, in ? from _rpm import * ImportError: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: cannot read file data: Is a directory install exited abnormally sending termination signals...done sending kill signals...done disabling swap... unmounting filesystems... /mnt/runtime done disabling /dev/loop0 /proc/bus/usb done /proc done /dev/pts done /sys done /tmp/ramfs done /mnt/source done /selinux done you may safely reboot your system Expected results: Installer should run. Additional info: I have checked the sha1sum with the sums on the Fedora website and all ISO sums checkout ok. I have also burned the cds using "cdwriter", "xcdroast" and "cdrecord". When running the mediacheck they all fail. I have also downloaded the ISO's with a different computer that is currently running FC3. I then burned them and tried to install them on that second computer and had the same problem.
