From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 4.0; OptusNetCable-02) Description of problem: I install from CD. The installer crashes at the point when it attempts to install the zlibxxx module. Having said this, depending on the exact installation options I select (workstation, server, custom, etc) or the exact packages I select, the installer can also fail when attempting to install other modules. Originally, I thought I had faulty installation media. But I have tried three different sets of media with the same result. My system's configuration (see below) may contribute to the problem. A trace file is attached. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Perform a normal workstation installation. 2. 3. Actual Results: The installer crashed. Expected Results: The installation should have succeeded. Additional info: I have a triple boot system on one 13GB HDD - Windows 98 (FAT), Windows NT (NTFS), and Windows NT (NTFS). Each operating system has its own partition. Then a 2GB NTFS partition for data files. Then 5GB free space for installing Linux. When I install Linux, I create a small boot partition below the 1024 cylinder boundary, then an ext3 partition that begins below the boundary, then a swap partition.
