pressed enter when the fedora screen loaded.  I selected English and US, I was
trying a ftp install, I unselected IPv6, entered the download location and
directory pressed enter and I got a backtrace:

sorry this bug is not fixed in the august 5th rawhide.  reopening.  Someone from
the redhat devel mailing list (see aug4th boot.iso backtrace) thinks this is
caused by not putting a / before the directory.

Comment 2 Chris Lumens 2006-08-07 13:39:24 UTC
Yes, it is fixed.  anaconda was not rebuilt on Friday, so the fix is not yet
available.  We'll probably rebuild today or tomorrow.
