Description David Balažic 2000-02-21 10:47:18 UTC
I had a crash in expert mode install from CD.
What happened :
 - start expert mode install
 - cancel the request for a driver floppy
 - select language 'english'
 - select keyboard 'slovene' (the crash does not happen if I select 'US' !)
 - Skip SCSI&network drivers load ( by selecting "Done" )
 - X is started , RH logo is displayed and then it stops there
virtual terminal 1 has this message :
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "/usr/bin/anaconda", line 341, in ?
    intf.run(todo, test = test )
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/gui.py", line 249, in run
    ( rules, model, layout, variant, options) = todo.keyboard.getXKB()
TypeError: unpack non-sequence

Traceback (innermost last):
  File "/usr/bin/anaconda", line 348, in ?
    intf.__del__ ()
 AttributeError: __del__

Issue is resolved in the latest beta installer.
