Description Need Real Name 2000-12-26 15:05:55 UTC
Mr Sir,
         Being really desperate to work with Linux 7.0 for the first 
time , it was really disappointing for me to see such a bug report during 
installation.
Its been a month since i had been waiting for my exams to be complete 
and i would install LINUX but may be thats my Hard luck....
anyway 
... it would be really kind of u if u please help me install this OS so 
that i can continue programming as soon as possible and by that time i 
plan to do HTML and make my own Home-page.Thanks for reading

the problem was stated as (by Linux itself):  
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/iw/progress_gui.py", 
line 20, in run
    rc = self.todo.doInstall ()
  File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/todo.py", line 1472, in 
doInstall
    self.fstab.mountFilesystems (self.instPath)
  File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/fstab.py", line 713, in
