Bug 445031

Description of problem:

Installation of Fedora 9 Preview failed and asked me to file a bug report, so
here I go.
First, some background: I have both IDE and SATA drives in my box. Now, when I
installed the new SATA drive, I found that it became /dev/sdc while my two IDE
drives stayed sda and sdb. Fine until I booted off the Fedora 8 install disk, at
which point the SATA drive became /dev/sda, so I could not create a working
installation on it. Then I re-ordered the hard disk boot sequence in the BIOS to
put the SATA drive first, and hey presto it came up as /dev/sda when booting
from hard disk too. Problem solved I thought, and installed a system on it,
which worked fine.
BUT when I booted off my Fedora 9 preview disk the SATA drive went back to being
/dev/sdc. Ouch! Had to change the boot order in BIOS back again so I could
install or rescue a system that would actually run. 
But here's the problem. I rescued my old system OK, but installing the new one I
got as far as 'transferring install image to disk' and an error comes up. The
option to save the exception information to disk is greyed out, and I don't have
another machine handy I can squirt the report to (this bugger runs Windows :-( )
...might be a good idea if you allowed the exception handler to shoot these
reports straight back to Fedora Central. 
Anyway I'll point my webcam at the screen, should give you the gist...
