Description Aravind Seshadri 2007-08-07 19:26:27 UTC 
Description of problem:
Anaconda crashes when upgrading from F7 to F8Test1. System configuration

Dell Dimension 4400
Currently running F7 without any glitch
LVM for partition management

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
F8Test1 (7.90)

How reproducible:
Can reproduce easily

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Choose the upgrade option when you install F8Test1
2. Use the new bootloader from the F8Test1 installation
3. Put the boot loader in the MBR
4. When the install process starts (after transferring the installation image to
the hard drive) anaconda crashes.

Attached is a copy of the anaconda dump.

Actual results:


Expected results:


Additional info:

Fortunately I had a floppy drive in that system. My laptop does not have a
floppy drive. I was wondering how one could get the anaconda dump without a
floppy drive. Can it be stored in an USB drive?
