Description Brian Schwartz 2006-09-02 22:47:47 UTC 
Description of problem:

When going through the Bourdeux install, in the last step, just as files are
beginning to be copied to my harddrive - an exception is thrown & I must restart.

I was able to install using the same discs several weeks ago on the same machine
although in that time I added memory (which passed the memtest utility) & a scsi
harddrive.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:

Happens consistently on my machine by going through the install from disc or
install from ftp.

  
Actual results:


Expected results:

Is this reproducible?  What did you previously have installed?
Comment 3 Brian Schwartz 2006-09-07 03:46:37 UTC 
Ok - some more info:

I ended up resolving the problem by unplugging a scsi hard drive.  In my setup I
had two attached hard drives - a primary ide & a scsi.  When I unattached the
scsi, files were able to be copied.... and the process worked out.  I don't know
what was on the scsi hd (I bought it used & had not reformatted it).  This was
100% reproducible.

From comment #1, this looks like the lvremove error we saw a lot of in FC5.  Try
rawhide or a Fedora 7 test release.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen thus bug against that version.
