Description Michael A. McAngus 2001-03-17 17:48:48 UTC

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.75 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.16-22 i586)


I attempted to install RH Linux 7.0 and created a /usr partion that was too
small.  Installation stopped and a pop-up window informed me of this fact. 
Installer allowed me to go back and change partion allocations.  When I
attempted to continue installation, I received a message that Installer
would have to reboot to proceed, then I received the following:

--------------

The second installation attempt (with properly sized /usr partion)
succeeded.

Reproducible: Didn't try
