BTW - This is with the latest boot image from updates.rdehat.com and a local CD install. This may be a duplicate of #5809. Apologies. It takes a while to learn how to search for existing reports, you really have to submit one yourself to figure it out. |
When upgrading from 6.0 to 6.1, possibly associate with some kind of mount error, definitely associated with customizing the list of packages to be installed, I got the following python traceback from the (very slick) new installer: Gdk-WARNING **: shmget failed! Exception in thread Thread-3: Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/lib/python1.5/threading.py", line 376 in __bootstrap (? handwriting is garbled) self.run() File "/usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/iw/progress.py", line 16, in run rc = self.todo.doInstall() File "/usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/todo.py", line 1512 in doInstall prob = "%-15s %d %c\n" % (mount, need, suffix) TypeError: illegal argument type for builtin operation
