This means there was an error on copying things between mountpoints, but the
handling is a little incorrect.  What partitions did you set up?
Comment 3 spam djuka 2007-05-30 13:36:21 UTC 
If I remember correctly layout was like this:

Primary partition
 /boot  256 M
LVM
 /usr   10 G
 swap   4 G
 /      maksimum available size

Why is this bug still marked as NEEDINFO?
(Let me know if there's other info I can provide.)

Is there a workaround for this problem?
Comment 10 Jeremy Katz 2007-06-25 15:59:44 UTC 
This has been fixed in anaconda CVS

Great!

How can I try it out?

Unfortunately I can't use revisor because F7 won't install.
ie. I have a bootstrapping problem.

Any pointers to get F7 install working would be muchly appreciated.

Scott. :)

Just in case it's not clear, this bug isn't just in test4 - it's
in Fedora 7 too.

Scott.
