Description Rob 2013-07-01 15:25:15 UTC

I've done a good bit of searching online, and it seems that this is a bug that keeps getting closed, but it isn't really solved.  I have included my own anaconda log which is blocking me from installing fc18.  I have no WWLAN hardware. The same result occurs when tried with WiFi and Bluetooth off.  The workaround offered in the F18 common bugs also does not work.

Thanks!

Additional information: I am including nomodeset as a kernel boot parameter to get by a graphics freeze on boot up if that could make any difference.

Rob, please attach the full traceback file along with any log files in /tmp/anaconda to this bug. Thanks.

Gave up and switched to fc19, then Mint. Sorry I don't have them anymore.
