Since we have a support contract, I've created Service Request 1783282 to track this issue as well. Additional info: we are attempting to install an x86_64 guest. The install media checks out just fine. After much digging, we finally figured out this was a PEBKAC issue: the person who originally created the configuration for the guest OS in VMware configured it as a 32-bit guest, but we were installing off of the RHEL5 x86_64 media. Once we reconfigured the guest in VMware to reflect that we were installing an x86_64 guest, everything went smoothly, and we encountered no problems. Apologies for the noise. Could someone please close this bug with a resolution of NOTABUG? (Bugzilla is giving me permissions errors when I attempt to do this myself, even though I'm logged in.) |
