From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows 98) Description of problem: When I tried to create the partitions, /swap was not on the mount point dropdown menu. I typed in "/swap" but the installer overwrote it as "<swap>". At the end of the installation process, an error report was displayed and advised reporting the bug. Please see below for details. Error report; Traceback (innermost last): File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/iw/progress_gui.py", line 20, in run rc = self.todo.doInstall () File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/todo.py", line 1472, in doInstall self.fstab.mountFilesystems (self.instPath) File "fstab.py", line 715, in mountFilesystems raise SystemError, (errno, msg) SystemError: (22, 'Invalid argument') Local variables in innermost frame: size: 1025008 fsystem: ext2 self: <fstab.GuiFstab instance at 84b9998> msg: Invalid argument doFormat: 0 errno: 22 device: sdb6 instPath: /mnt/sysimage mntpoint: / ToDo object: (itodo ToDo p1 (dp2 S'method' p3 (iimage CdromInstallMethod p4 (dp5 S'progressWindow' p6 <failed> Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1.
