What does the traceback in comment #1 have to do with the bug description in the original comment?

Comment 3 Eric Springer 2011-02-19 22:44:25 UTC
Not sure, I just grabbed the anaconda log -- after the "Unable to read group info". But prior to that I also made many unsuccessful attempts at installing. I'll try reproduce this bug from the latest nightly compose and attach another log

Comment 4 Eric Springer 2011-02-20 04:03:50 UTC
Heh, using the latest compose I can't get far enough to reproduce -- keep getting hit by other bugs first (a user account one, a formatting one etc.). I'll give it another shot around the beta, once anaconda starts getting a little stable
