This is a dupe of bug 17791. Could you give step by step instructions on how to reproduce this problem? I don't mean to be unhelpful, but the steps to duplicate the problem are 1. attempt to install software The install application died on 100% of runs. Changing install options made no difference. Running in graphics mode vs text mode made no difference. Further info: Selecting different partition sizes also had no effect on problem (I tried the default, a single huge partition, several other variations). The problem has been resolved, but not using RedHat tools: 1) fdisk /mbr to clear boot record 2) Create a Linux partition and Linux swap space with System Commander 2000 Everything ran perfectly thereafter. |
