Did you happen to not install the passwd package? It is needed. I did not choose to select individual packages, so I guess the question is, "Does the installer install the passwd package by default?" But seriously, at the point the installer dies, /usr/bin is still the install image, isn't it? If the passwd package is installed, isn't it located in the destination mount point? >Local variables in innermost frame:
>argv: ['/usr/bin/passwd', '--stdin', 'root']
>root: /mnt/sysimage
>stdin: 22
>newPgrp: 0
>stdout: 21
>stderr: 2
>command: /usr/bin/passwd
There is no passwd at /usr/bin at this stage - and if passwd is installed,
possibly it is at /mnt/sysimage/usr/bin?
Yes it should be running /mnt/sysimage/usr/bin/passwd. Could you try the install again, using the same options, and watch to see if passwd gets installed, and when the installation of packages is almost complete, go to virtual console 2 and look in /mnt/sysimage/usr/bin to see if the passwd binary exists. Be sure to 'cd /' when you are done so the installer can umount all mounts cleanly when it is done. No, passwd does not get installed. And I think I've found the problem. At the error screen, the install pauses. On console 2, I ran rpm -q -p passwd-0.64.1-4.i386.rpm from /mnt/source/RedHat/RPMS. rpm said that package did not appear to be a valid RPM. So I tried rpm -q -p * and found that a lot of the RPMs in there are corrupt. Including packages like the XFree fonts and other handy things. I had downloaded the ISO from several sites simultaneously with GetRight. I had no problems using this method to get 6.1, so either GetRight screwed up (this is a newer version than I used before), there was some kind of transfer error on one of the segments that GetRight didn't catch, or there is different versions of ISO's on the mirrors. In either case, NotABug, corrupt CD image. Maybe I'll just break down and buy the thing! :) Thanks. A couple of thoughts: It might be handy in the future to have the install process be able to tell whether or not an RPM is corrupt, rather than just have it skip it altogether. Your related 18201 sounds like the same thing. Thanks again! Sorry to waste your time, you appear busy. We will try to address this in the future by trapping the RPM error - the current behavior is inadequate.
