From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 Description of problem: See bug 85861, which says it all. It is for sure reproducable, and a bugfix file has been attached. 1.Even though the first drive is the good one, the installer will probe all drives, causing install to fail to mount the CDROM, since it tries the good one first, mounts but continues trying the next drive. 2. Info about the drives is tried on the wrong device, more then 1 device present, and the first is unmounted, but still default. Maybe this explanation is difficult to understand, but a diff of the attached file might help :-) Similar to bug 84748, which might be solved with this one too. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.1.9-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.start program without discs inserted 2.try to install 1 packages. 3.after inserting the disc on request, the error happens 4.program stops -> Another bug ? Make sure you have more then 1 device (cdrom, cdrom1) Expected Results: 1. We should install But.. 2. If it fails, I like to see the correct reason (only visible when started in a terminal) 3. If it fails to mount a drive or find a package file, it should return to the main window, allowing more or other updates Additional info: This is the trace I added myself to debug. Added a lot of extra printing...
