Description
Need Real Name

Please try the update image: http://people.redhat.com/~katzj/9-updates.img Write this out to a floppy using the 'dd' command the same way you would make a boot floppy. Then boot the installer with 'linux updates' and insert the floppy when prompted. Many thanks, using the updates floppy resolves the problem. I encountered exactly the same bug (see attached "anaconda.log" file) during installation of Red Hat Linux release 9 (Shrike) by FTP. Using the update image as advised in comment #1 resolved the problem for me too. Created attachment 91209 [details]
Anaconda.log of failed RH9 (Shrike) FTP installation
The changes in that update disk are applied in CVS and will be present in our next release. Hi, I ran into exactly the same issue. Allthough i was perfectly able to get the file using wget (had to search for a device with sufficient space though because the file is about 9Mb.. So it is not related to the length of the ftp-path you type in in the beginning (because in my case it always came with a content-header- length exception.. and the path to my install ftp is kinda long..) just my 2 cents |
