I forgot something that can be important: I was doing an install from a CD created with the ISO image found on FTP server Happened to me also while I was trying to install through FTP on a PIII 600 computer with intel onboard network card Are you explicitely NOT installing kudzu? It is required for the install to complete, and is in our default component lists. actually I chose the everything option in the installation I've done the custom installation because I've to keep the existing data on the other partitions, but didn't explicitely removed kudzu from installation I tried another installation to see what I usually installed: - Print Support - X support - GNome - Toolmail/WWW/News - Dos/Win Connectivity - Graphic elaboration - Multimedia Support - LapTop Support - Workstation network support - Workstation Dialup support - Server SMB - Workstation network management - Authoring/Publishing - Emacs - Development - Utility Then I went to "detailed package" to see if kudzu is cheched as installed and I just find one package with kudzu in it's name.. it was in Development/Libraries/kudzu-devel and it was checked, I didn't find anything else. Another annoying thing, but that can be "by design" is that, after the installation fails, my CD tray is "locked" and I cannot eject the CD-ROM since I don't boot Win2K and access the CD from the File Explorer. If I try to eject the CD before the tray doesn't come out.. Another thing that might be usefull to help debug the problem.. I decided not to make a boot diskette and to install the LILO in the Linux Partition and not on the MBR Please try the 7.0 final release which just came out and see if it addresses these problems. |
Every time I install the RedHat 7 beta, when I arrive at "port- installation operation" (the step that happens just when the file installation finish) it goes for a few seconds, than, when the progress bar is almost 40% and an error occurs and a popup come out with the following dump. This is very annoying because I cannot install Linux. If u need it my PC is an Acer Laptop (TravelMate 732 TE) Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/bin/anaconda", line 426, in ? intf.run(todo, test = test) File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0//usr/lib/anaconda/text.py", line 1022, in run rc = apply (step[1](), step[2]) File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0//usr/lib/anaconda/text.py", line 504, in __call__ if todo.doInstall (): File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0//usr/lib/anaconda/todo.py", line 1674, in doInstall stdout = devnull) File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0//usr/lib/anaconda/iutil.py", line 40, in execWithRedirect raise RuntimeError, command + " can not be run" RuntimeError: /usr/sbin/kudzu can not be run Local variables in innermost frame: argv: ['/usr/sbin/kudzu', '-q'] root: /mnt/sysimage stdin: 0 newPgrp: 0 stdout: 16 stderr: 2 command: /usr/sbin/kudzu searchPath: 0 ignoreTermSigs: 0 ToDo object: (itodo ToDo p1 (dp2 S'method' p3 (iimage CdromInstallMethod p4 (dp5 S'progressWindow' p6
