Description Matthew 2006-10-25 18:28:53 UTC

Description of problem:
After selecting my install partitian to install, I get that they CD can't be
unount from /dev/source (or was it /mnt/source?) and it warns about using it
with tty2. I didn't do anything with tty2 and I rebooted to try it again and got
the same problem. I tried manually unounting /(dev/mnt)/source which I could do,
but the retry button still failed to work. The log window (tty3 I believe) said
something about cdmount (cdSOMETHING) illegal paramater. This wasn't a problem
once I switched to the text mode installer on reboot. The only oddity I can
think of is my LVM raid of two SATA drives?

Comment 1 Steve Cobrin 2006-10-26 14:53:58 UTC

I have a similar problem. When I get to the screen to select what software to
install, I selected Fedora Extras then selected next. I then receive the message
"An error occured unmounting the CD. Please make sure you'r not accessing
/mnt/source from the shell on tty2 then vlick OK to retry." However I select OK
and get that message again, the is no way to proceed.

Further remarks:
- I'm booting of a DVD
- When I switch to tty2 and type mount, it tells me /tmp/cdrom is mounted on
/mnt/source I'm unable to umount either /mnt/source or /tmp/cdrom
"umount: Couldn't umount /tmp/cdrom: Function not implemented"
typing "eject" didn't work either
- In /tmp/anaconda.log the only relevant message appears to be
"ERROR: exception in unmountCD:( 16, 'Device or resource busy')
- When I typed "fuser /tmp/cdrom" I got a segmenattion fault

Comment 2 Steve Cobrin 2006-10-27 10:31:04 UTC

When I ran again, this time not selecting "Fedora Extras" it all worked and
didn't hang.

Comment 3 Matthew 2006-10-27 22:58:34 UTC

Just to confirm, Steve's situation is the same as mine.

Comment 4 Jeremy Katz 2006-10-30 19:14:36 UTC

Can you provide /tmp/anaconda.log?

Comment 6 Matthew 2007-06-12 03:55:06 UTC

This was against FC6 I believe, I no longer have this problem in F7 and I think
there isn't much interest in fixing this so change status to "WONTFIX"?
