Description of problem:
When trying to show a list of the different mouses, anaconda stopped, and
terminated the installation process.

It seemed to give an index out of bounds error code.

After two attempts I tried in textmode, which worked perfectly.

This was during an upgrade from RedHat 7.3 to 9.0

I selected norwegian for installation language and danish for keyboard lay-out

Anaconda dumped an error report in a  text-file to a floppy, which I have
enclosed to this bug-report

My system: AMD Athlon XP1800+ 256Mb RAM 40+20Gb Hd

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot computer from a RedHat 9.0 CD-rom
2. Press enter to select GUI install
3. Start or skip control of cd media
4. Choose norwegian(bokmaal) for installation language
5. Choose danish for keyboard layout
6. Wait for the process to terminate
    

Actual Results:  Anaconda and the X-server terminated and stopped my computer

Expected Results:  Select a mouse type

Additional info:

Here is the log - the entire file anaconda dumped was to long for this report to
be accepted. Please contact me if you want me to mail it
