ran anaconda using linux updates at boot prompt update image: update-disk-20001009.img ----------Error Message----------- Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/bin/anaconda.real", line 438, in ? intf.run(todo, test = test) File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/text.py", line 1030, in run File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/textw/packages_text.py", line 33, in __call__ File "/tmp/updates/todo.py", line 539, in getCompsList self.comps = self.method.readComps(self.hdList) File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/harddrive.py", line 43, in readComps File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/comps.py", line 459, in __init__ File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/comps.py", line 428, in readCompsFile File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/comps.py", line 101, in __getitem__ KeyError: vixie-cron Local variables in innermost frame: self: <comps.HeaderList instance at 82fc528> item: vixie-cron ToDo object: (itodo ToDo p1 (dp2 S'method' p3 (iharddrive HardDriveInstallMethod p4 (dp5 S'fstype' p6 S'vfat' p7 sS'isMounted' p8 I1 sS'fnames' p9 (dp10 <failed> ---------The End----------- I discovered that the following files contain the string vixie-cron: --RPMs-- modutils-2.3.14-3.i386.rpm --base-- comps hdlist stage2.img So, I downloaded them from ftp.redhat.com using a BINARY connection. Once again, I used linux updates at the boot prompt and update-disk-20001009.img THE SAME ERROR MESSAGE WAS DISPLAYED. Today, I am going to purchase the RedHat 7.0 CD-ROM. If I see that error message with the CD, I am gonna be one unhappy boy. The hard drive install is one of the more difficult methods to setup. Downloading the ISO images and burning CDs is usually more successful. I hope you have better luck with the CDs. |
