Description of problem:
Right after the installer is done loading all the packages and starts whatever
it does after that, I get an unhandled exception, something during traceback.

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


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.boot from image floppy
2.start install
3.
	

Actual Results:  install fails after loading packages and and gives me the
option to debug or copy the error data to a floppy.

Expected Results:  Install finishes

Additional info:

I have a feeling this could be related to a hard drive capacity problem.
I am installing on a Compaq Deskpro 2000,which has a 10GB maxtor HD installed in it.

Are these CDs you burned yourself?  If so, do the md5sums match those on our ftp
site?
Comment 3 Need Real Name 2002-04-05 20:43:12 UTC 
Yes, these are CD's that I burned myself, unfortunately I did not check the 
images before I burned them and I also deleted them. I will download them 
again, check them, burn them and try the reinstall again. Any chance that if I 
created an ISO image from my CD's that they would be the same?
Comment 4 Michael Fulbright 2002-04-09 18:49:18 UTC 
Do you mean if you dd the ISO image off the CD?
I wouldn't really recommend trying that however.

Let us know if your new download works better.

BTW, you can install from harddrive if you download the ISO images into a
directory on an existing partition.  That way you don't have to burn CDs.
