/dev/hda8 is an ext2 partition. |
My system reported an error when trying to upgrade RedHat Linux 6.0 (Hedwig) to 7.0. I downloaded the /RPMS and /base directories to my /dev/hda8 (approx. 2gig) partition. I added the /dev/hda8 partition later then the original install for storing media files. I ran install and after checking installation and checking installed packages it crashed with the following error message, asking me to report it. I run a Cyrix 6x86 - 300 Mhz, 64 MB ram, onboard video controler, WD 26000 (+/- 6 gigs.) and two ethernet controllers. The following error dump was put on a disc: Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/bin/anaconda.real", line 438, in ? intf.run(todo, test = test) File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/text.py", line 1028, in run File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/text.py", line 279, in __call__ File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/todo.py", line 941, in upgradeFindPackages File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/todo.py", line 539, in getCompsList File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/harddrive.py", line 43, in readComps File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/comps.py", line 459, in __init__ File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/comps.py", line 428, in readCompsFile File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/comps.py", line 101, in __getitem__ KeyError: whois Local variables in innermost frame: self: <comps.HeaderList instance at 821b8a0> item: whois ToDo object: (itodo ToDo p1 (dp2 S'method' p3 (iharddrive HardDriveInstallMethod p4 (dp5 S'fstype' p6 S'ext2' p7 sS'isMounted' p8 I1 sS'fnames' p9 (dp10 <failed>
