Description Rick Duval 2001-01-20 23:48:11 UTC
I have tried this a few times so it is consistent.

INstalling Redhat Pro Server using GUI. Near end size calculated is larger 
than available space on /usr partition. Instll allows user to go back and 
change sizes but when return to end of info gathering to do install the 
following error occurs.

This is from anacdump.txt saved to floppy.

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 1468, in 
doInstall
    self.fstab.savePartitions ()
  File "fstab.py", line 221, in savePartitions
    sys.exit(0)
SystemExit: 0

This is fixed in our internal tree. You should be able to reboot and continue
with no problems.
