Dump when installing Redhat Linux 9
Same problem as previously, just additional info related to Redhat Linux 9
instead of 8.0
I have the EXACT same problem while trying to install Redhat Linux 9 that I downloaded on Friday! Thank you for trying the updated version, I will forward this to an engineer. What option did you select for the boot loader upgrade? Closing due to inactivity. Please reopen if you have any further information to add to this bug report |
Description of problem: Upgrading Redhat 7.1 to 8.0 on a Dell Dimension XPS T450. Windows 2000 on hda (20GB) and Linux 7.1 on hdc (60GB). LILO as bootloader on hda. During post install configuration the system halts with exception error message. File dump saved. Preinstallation message is telling me that the linux installation has the wrong parameters for hdc 7476/255/63 and parted recommends to use 119150/16/63. I do select 'ignore' to use the setting suggested by parted. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. start installation (boot from CD) 2. select 'ignore' to use the parameters recommended by parted. If I do not do it, the previous Linux installation can not be found. 3. Run installation of 8.0. At the end during post installation configuration the system halts with exception error. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
