Description George Beshers 2007-07-05 21:43:12 UTC
Description of problem:
  I was testing the NFS installation of rhel4-u6 on altix4.rhts
  (dual 330).  During a normal install (firewall disabled, selinux disabled,
  and setting the system clock to UTC --- I think thats what I did
  both times) after selecting "customize software" and advancing to
  the next page I got:

7/5 from bigpapi:rhel4-u6-ia64-AS
This was altix4 (dual 330) with the SCSI vault turned off.

Making this a BZ -- this is RedHat's problem.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/anaconda", line 1186, in ?
    intf.run(id, dispatch, configFileData)
  File "/var/tmp/anaconda-10.1.1.63//usr/lib/anaconda/text.py", line 488, in run
