Installation error dump
Please reproduce Brent. Did you burn this CD yourself? It appears you have a corrupt install image. You could try an expert install and since it does not probe as much as the default mode you could get around this issue, and configure X after the install is complete. I did burn the CD my self and have install/upgraded 2 other systems with it. It is not consistent on where the install stops. Most of the time it stops when installing the packages. The system just reboots after a while. I suspect that the problem is a corrupt install image on the CD. If you can, try again with a different CD and let me know if the same thing happens. What video card is in the system having this problem? Is the same card in the other systems which worked ok? Got upgrade to work when I downloaded the newest iso and used that. Please close this bug. Thanks, Greg Great! Glad to know things are working ok now. |
