From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de-AT; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031114 Description of problem: Using the boot.iso file of the x86_64 tree you can make a bootable cd and boot from it. Booting from this CD, after having made some choices it downloads the stage2.img file. Having downloaded this file, I get the following message: The Fedora Core installation tree in this directory seems not to correspond to your boot medium (translated from the German message text) I downloaded the boot.iso image from the directory /images of the x86_64rawhide tree. When the prog asked for the ftp directory I entered a mirror (located in Germany) and the root directory tree of the installation (/pub/linux /fedora..../x86_64). From <alt><F3> I can see: -------- transferring ftp://{mirror]/pub/.../development/x86_64/Fedora/base/stage2.img copied 77770752 bytes to /tmp/ramfs/stage2.img (complete) mntloop loop0 on /mnt/runtime as /tmp/ramfs/stage2.img fd is 22 --------- So I think erverything went OK. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rawhide as of Apr. 23, 04 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. download boot.iso as of Apr. 23, 04 2. make the CD and boot 3. after having downloaded the stage2.img file the above mentioned message appears Actual Results: Installation is blocked Expected Results: Installation should proceed Additional info:
Your mirror is out of sync. These files *must* be from the same composed tree. Unfortunately, with rawhide mirroring, they sometimes get out of sync on mirrors.
