... quark collision (**kwargs) with an Solaris partition ...

lambda,quarks, ..., quantum physics ?


seriously:

it was a native (non VM) install via boot.iso.
chosen was a manual partitioning on free space on sdaN with N > 3

Comment 10 Joel Andres Granados 2009-03-27 10:18:03 UTC
This is fixed in anaconda 11.5.0.38 and over

Comment 11 Ronald Warsow 2009-03-27 13:30:11 UTC
when does "over" hit the mirror's ?

Comment 12 Vinagre 2009-03-27 21:06:16 UTC
@ Ronald Warsow
This was fixed in 11.5.0.38 you don't need the next release.

I test it using the net install iso image:
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/development/$basearch/os/images/boot.iso

replace $basearch with x86_64 or i386 according to your system.

Comment 13 Ronald Warsow 2009-03-27 22:19:56 UTC
@Vinagre

Thanks for the hint. 
Each morning I look at this link since ~10 days..., and koji (anaconda), and in the directory "Packages".

Frustrating !

But you are right I'm in the wrong anaconda bug - one of my ~5 -.

the remaining/todays bug/trace is called "Unable to satisfy all constraints ..."

So it looks like I need anaconda version "over"

Comment 14 Ronald Warsow 2009-04-05 14:54:50 UTC
to be closed !
