I have experienced the same problem, the report generated by anaconda as it dies is nearly identical to that above. I suspected that the error had something to do the with the HD, so I placed it into another system and was able to install successfully. Is this a conflict with the system? Is there a work-around? Eric Goodwin Could you verify your media following the instructions at http://rhlinux.redhat.com/anaconda/mediacheck.html? Closing due to inactivity. If you have more information to add please reopen. Created attachment 93406 [details]
Anacron dump to floppy
My comments seemed to have disappeared. I sent the anacron dump because I have this same problem. Afer package selection, installtion begins but crashes after a random period. Typical completion is 20-40%, but it has also done 0% and 80%. It makes no difference what I do with hardware, eg swapping harddrives, trying on another box, swapping CD drives with another box. linux mediacheck shows CD1 is fine. Twice, however, it got all the way through the install, after many attempts. I would like this bug to be reopened, but there isn't an option for that, so I suppose it's up to you. |
