Description eckman 2000-02-16 20:01:13 UTC 
The problem happens when I install from a fat32 drive and I tell the
installer to mount the fat32 drive (as /dos in this case).  When the
computer starts to install files the following error comes up:

File "/usr/lib/anaconda/todo.py", line 962, in instCallback
self.rpmFD = os.open(fn, os.O_RDONLY) OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or
directory: '/mnt/sysimage/dos///RedHat/RPMS/setup-2.1.4-1.noarch.rpm'

It doesn't look like /mnt/sysimage/dos is being mounted.

It installs if I don't give the dos drive a mount point.

I was using the text installer and was doing a custom install.
