I'm very confused by your traceback, as it seems like it occurred in the package selection code and yet the rest of your log file indicates all packages installed successfully and you got to the complete step.  I can't think of what would result in this very unusual situation.  Can you reliably reproduce this with F10 Preview?

Comment 3 Kévin Ferrare 2008-11-19 04:28:14 UTC
I got this bug while installing Fedora in Virtualbox, but I don't have access to the machine on which the failure occured so I cannot restest or give you the exact emulator version. I will retry when I will be able to.

On another machine with virtualbox 2.0.4, the install went flawlessly.

I noticed something weird though ; after partitionning and setting up the network, you normally have to select the packages you want to install. But on the failed install, it started installing the packages without showing me the selection screen.

Comment 4 Chris Lumens 2008-11-21 18:06:22 UTC
Yes I agree, that's pretty weird.  I've never seen that in any of my testing, nor have I gotten other reports of it from QA.  For now I am going to close this as WORKSFORME, but if you ever hit this problem again, feel free to reopen this bug.  Hopefully you won't hit it, though.
