Go through the installation procedures on both an ASUSMB/AMD Athalon 700 
and also on a Dell Dimension L866r. They generate the same error. These 
CPUs are listed as compatible hardware, so I am not sure this is the 
issue. Installation works fine on my Generic style 6 yo P-Classic 150

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Begin Installation
2. Configure normally...include anaconda or not in package selection...no 
difference
3. After Installation formats hda* and begins the package installations is 
when error occurs.
	

Actual Results:  See additional information for log....Computer halts 
install and reboots.

Expected Results:  Install should work normally.

Traceback (innermost last):
