Is there actually repodata in your repo? If you mean that "http://storm.lan/linux/fedora/rawhide/i386/os/" -- yes. It is actually not my own repo, it is a mirror of http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/development/i386/os/ Also anaconda doesn't seem to attempt to fetch anything from that repo when I retry (checked with tcpdump, and httpd logs). Is this better with today's rawhide? We've had a couple builds go by now with tons of bugfixes. The same. I tried with today's rawhide + partedUtils.py fix. Does anaconda with current rawhide work for you. I'm mostly sure that my mirror is alright. If I break into debugger at the place I see the dialog box, what should I look for to get more clue? repo.baseurl contains just the correct repository URL and I am able to use the repository with yum. No longer a problem -- rawhide installation succeeded for me. |
Description of problem: I can't install rawhide for more than a week now -- the further I get is this screen: +----------------------------+ Error +-----------------------------+ | | | Unable to read package metadata.

If the issues are known, fixed and my reports are annoying, just tell me. I just feel that six month release cycle, with one month frozen leaves small time for testing, so I don't want uninstallable trees to shorten it even more.
