Traceback for anaconda crash using beta 3 none

Description Ray Curtis 2001-07-29 15:58:33 UTC
Description of Problem:
Got a similar respsonse doing a full install with beta 2 using this
same hardware, beta hardware description #19.
It goes through the complete install, up to the install of lilo,grub never
asking which one I  want then crashes with the traceback attached.

I then went back and tried to use the old update.img I used to install with
beta2 but this crashed right away, I didn't save that traceback but assumed
since it was the one you gave me for beta2 it wouldn't work.

How Reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Do a full install 
2. 
3. 

Actual Results:
Crashes with traceback message.

Expected Results:
Complete install however asking which to use either lilo or grub.

Additional Information:

Forgot to mention this is a similar  problem to my bug #49218 in beta2 I had
hoped would be 
fixed since the update.img from the bug #49218 seemed to allow an install.
