Description Martin Pabst 2001-03-06 18:44:03 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.75 [en] (WinNT; U)


It is not possible to install RedHat; installation fails with error "No such file or directory'. 
The problem is independent of HD partitions and of the HW.
There is no means to solve the problem. It's quite time consuming to
reproduce the bug (prepare the installation).
The installer trace is listed below.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start custom installation of RedHat; partition HD
2.Chose HW and SW configuration
3.Start the installation
	

Actual Results:  Bug report:
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 ()

<failed>

Expected Results:  Installation o.k.

The installation was o.k. on one host; it failed repeatedly on two different
hosts. The problem is high - installation impossible.

The problem may be related to bug #22302
