Description Need Real Name 2001-01-30 22:00:44 UTC

I'm trying to upgrade a RedHat 7.0 system and it crashes just before I get
to pick the individual packages to upgrade.  This is a HP LPR NetServer,
PIII 750, 512 MB RAM dual scsi hard drives.  I booted off the CDROM to do
the upgrade.   Here is the traceback--


Traceback (innermost last):

===========================================================================
We tried the fix-- 

anaconda update disk (RHBA-2000-084)  

 which didn't work--it still crashed.  I called support ( we have
per-server support) and described the problem--he suggested that I submit
the problem here.  Let me know what you find.  Thanks

There is a problem with your CD. You can get a new CD from customer support if
you purchased a Red Hat Linux box set.
