Description Ale Feltes Quenhan 2000-08-29 13:04:01 UTC
I couldn4t find the component "installer" on the list, and since it4s the anaconda installer the one that give me the messages I put it into that 
component, altough I am not sure it belongs to it.
I dowloaded the .ISO files, mounted on a directory an tried to upgrade my system with the
ftp instalation method. I tried two times to upgrade my RH 6.2 system.
When remaining 25 packets (aprox., 24 one time 26 the second)
This is the dumped information that i get from the installer

We've fixed this bug in our internal development tree.

Comment 2 Ale Feltes Quenhan 2000-09-01 03:45:44 UTC
ok. Buy what was the failure.
I figured out that perhaps i ran out of space on one partition, could I?
