I am installing Linux.  After going through the entire pre-install 
process, I finally get to the "about to install" step.  It is right at the 
start of this step that anaconda crashes and produces the error message 
displayed in the 'Additional Information' section of this HTML page.

This is the second time this has happened.  If this bug is not fixed, I 
will not be able to install Red Hat Linux.
