Note that the above error happened when I had checked 'verify bad blocks'. I retried without this, and it worked. How many hard drives are in your system and how big are they? Can you tell me exactly what partitions you created and how big they were? Did you format all partitions? I think we've resolved this issue with better error checking routines. Please reopen if problem persists in future releases. |
RedHat stops during installation. It starts formatting, then the error "Cannot format swap device" appears, at which the following was given out: 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 "fstab.py", line 715, in mountFilesystems raise SystemError, (errno, msg) SystemError: (22, 'Invalid argument') Local variables in innermost frame: size: 1052257 fsystem: ext2 self: <fstab.GuiFstab instance at 8446f48> msg: Invalid argument doFormat: 1 errno: 22 device: hda3 instPath: /mnt/sysimage mntpoint: / ToDo object: (itodo ToDo p1 (dp2 S'method' p3 (iimage CdromInstallMethod p4 (dp5 S'progressWindow' p6 <failed> (Btw, the session tracking in Bugzilla is not working correctly)
