Description Need Real Name 2000-12-27 17:48:33 UTC
The red hat installer simply does not work for me.  The following message is given when attempting to format the drives.  I have 
been unable to get past this.  I am running using the Install Updates I obtained today at the Red Hat support page.

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 "/tmp/updates/todo.py", line 1491, in doInstall
    self.fstab.mountFilesystems (self.instPath)
  File "/tmp/updates/fstab.py", line 715, in mountFilesystems
    raise SystemError, (errno, msg)
SystemError: (22, 'Invalid argument')
