Can you check on tty1 to see if there's a traceback? Also please attach /tmp/anaconda.log to this bug report. Thanks. Discussed at 2012-10-03 blocker review meeting: http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-qa/2012-10-03/f18-beta-blocker-review-2.2012-10-03-16.00.log.txt . Accepted as a blocker as a conditional violation of criterion "The installer must be able to complete an installation using the text, graphical and VNC installation interfaces". With oldUI this was obvious as you were forced through the keyboard selection dialog. Now we have a hub/spoke design it's not quite so obvious, but we are choosing to consider keyboard selection as a natural part of a basic install process, we are going to assume that anyone using a non-US keyboard is naturally going to go to the keyboard selection spoke and try to pick it, hence if they can't do that, this effectively breaks the installation process for them. (For the record, I tested, and I can reproduce this bug exactly as described, from the GNOME live installer, just hit the + button - which you have to do to use any other keyboard layout - and it freezes. Didn't test DVD/netinst yet.) Fixing one deadlock introduced another. Let's take care of both at once. anaconda-18.13-1.fc18 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 18. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/anaconda-18.13-1.fc18 anaconda-18.14-1.fc18 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 18. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/anaconda-18.14-1.fc18 Package anaconda-18.14-1.fc18: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 18 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing anaconda-18.14-1.fc18' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2012-15707/anaconda-18.14-1.fc18 then log in and leave karma (feedback). Checked with Beta TC3, this is fine. (Though I removed English (US) from the layouts in anaconda, but it was installed on the installed system - maybe it's a non-removable fallback?) It works now in Beta TC3. 18.14 went stable, so closing. |
