Description RussellB 2008-05-04 19:27:00 UTC
Description of problem:
The installer writes the image to hard disk. When writing is completed it
prepares the final steps (writing bootloader etc.) then a popup message appears
saying that the installer has crashed. I have attached the logfile that was
produced at that moment.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Two times out of two attempts

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot from Vixta.org 0.99 beta 2 DVD ISO until Linux KDE4 desktop appears.
2. Click on Install to HD and select options until image writes to HD.
3. When final steps are reached, it fails to write a bootloader to HD and crashes.
  
Actual results:
Popup window appears and a crash report is generated - see attached file.


Expected results:
Bootloader should install as per other Fedora distros, and then reboot and start
from HD.

Additional info:
The popup window instructs users to send bug report with the attached file here!

You'll need to report the problem to Vixta -- I'm not sure what changes they've
made to Fedora
