Description Bruno R. Menezes 2002-07-30 01:22:25 UTC 
Description of Problem:This problem appeared when I was install Red Hat Linux 
7.3 personal on a system with the following configrration:

Processor: Pentium 233 Mhz
RAM:       72 MB
Hard Drive: 20GB

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
How Reproducible:During install of Red Hat Linux 7.3.  This happens during the 
phase 'checking for bad blocks', after the partitioning has been done, and the 
packages have been selected.  

I had first selected 'ext3' as the file format, when I got this error.  I 
restarted the install, and select 'ext2' as the file format for the 
partitions.  I got the same error.  


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start the install
2. Partition using 'disk druid'
3. Select the packages 

Actual Results:


Expected Results:

You've hit a bug in the bad blocks checking. The check found bad block(s) -
unfortunately this can cause the installer to crash.

Since you drive apparently has bad blocks I'm not sure I'd recommend using it.
