More info...

I only see this on kickstart installs.  Chris Lumens thought it might be avoided
by removing the xconfig line from my kickstart file however I still hit the same
traceback with that commented out.


Comment 2 Chris Lumens 2006-11-30 18:50:12 UTC
Committed a fix.  Now that we don't have a list of valid drivers in rhpxl
anymore, anaconda just needs to trust what the user gives us.  I'll probably
rebuild anaconda tonight so you can test the fix tomorrow.

verified this long ago, sorry forgot to set the state to verified.
