From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1) Description of problem: After creating an LVM based install and selecting the packages to install the graphical installer crashes. (I have now successfully installed this system using the text based installer, however I couldn't do this from scratch as it is not possible to create an LVM PV with the text based system) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Unknown How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Boot installer 2.Partition with Disk Druid (I use LVM) 3.Customise packages 4.Proceed with install Expected Results: I would have expected the install to proceed correctly ;) Additional info:
Created attachment 93081 [details] Dump from installer crash This is the dump produced by the installer.
Having thought some more it may be that this bug only occurs if I step backwards through a couple of screens before proceeding with the install. (Initially I had not given enough disk space to /usr/local so went back and de- selected a couple of software packages).
Did you choose not to format your root fs?
I believe that the first time this happened was on a cold install and the root fs was brand new and would be formatted. It did happen after the format. The installer warned me about a lack of space on /usr so I used the "back" buttons to go back and de-select some packages. I then used the "next" buttons to retry the install.
Bingo. Fixed in CVS
Mass-closing lots of old bugs which are in MODIFIED (and thus presumed to be fixed). If any of these are still a problem, please reopen or file a new bug against the release which they're occurring in so they can be properly tracked.
