Anaconda Dump.
Brent what was the resolution of this issue? Um, the 'info' variable was supposed to be 'data'. This was fixed long ago internally. You must have accidentally downloaded the 7.0J product, because I don't think this bug exists in the English version. As for a workaround for you, I would recommend one of three things. 1) Make sure that you are using the English product. (Unless of course you need the Japanese one). Look at the .iso that you downloaded. Is it named 7.0-ja-i386-disc1.iso? If so, you've got the Japanese version. 2) If you are using the English version, or don't want to go though the trouble of downloading again, just skip configuring the video card during the install and then run Xconfigurator after reboot. You can click on the "Skip X Configuration" button to do this. 3) Use the text mode installer by saying 'linux text' at the initial boot screen when booting off the cd. Please let me know if any of these help you. I am marking the bug resolved because it has already been fixed in our internal builds. Thanks for your report. Aaaah, thanks. <sheepish grin> Yes, I downloaded the Japanese version .iso's instead of the correct ones. I went ahead and installed the Japanese version, just to see what text mode was all about and it was a lot easier than I thought. And it went very smoothly. :) Thanks for your help, I'll read the directions more carefully next time, eh? |
