Seen one the work1.private testbed machine too.
Tried various options as "noapic noipv6" and text mode to see if it was simple.
It's a hard crash in the loader on the images/boot.iso

Comment 3 G.Wolfe Woodbury 2007-04-08 17:05:00 UTC
Still happening with anaconda-11.2.0.45-1
I understand the main repo's are closed for the merger, but this is a major bug.

Comment 4 Bruno Wolff III 2007-04-09 13:03:55 UTC
I am seeing this too. I bult an install DVD from yesterday's (April 8th)
development images and rpms and got the same result as the reporter. This has
been happening less than a week, since I was able to do an install using images
from about April 2nd.

Rebuild of the stack seems to have fixed this
