Same error when I try to install kernel components. Is there any bypass or fix for this problem? The cause was that my /boot was full, maybe that is your case as well I do not have a /boot on this system. I originally got space warnings for /, but I am not getting them now. I will clear more space, if i can, and try again.

script output showing error
OK, making additional space on / (in addition to that which is required by the rpm) allowed the install to finish. Hopefully this extra explanation will help someone else if they run into this before the bug is fixed. This was a bug in error handling code. The error handling code is fixed in current code, so you shouldnt see this traceback now. |
