Description Frank Sweetser 2000-06-23 15:48:13 UTC
Tried to upgrade a fresh redhat 2.1 install, anaconda died while trying to
parse fstab.  Appears to have died on a line containing only '#\012'. 
Trace copied, fstab attached.

File "/usr/bin/anaconda", line 423 in ?
  intf.run(todo, test = test)
File "/usr/lib/anaconda/text.py", line 1000 in run
  rc = apply(step[1](), (dir,) + step[2])
File "/usr/lib/anaconda/text.py", line 827 in upgradeFindPackages
  fstab.readFstab('/mnt/sysimage/etc/fstab', self.fstab)
if fields[0] == '#' and fields[1][0:4] == 'LOOP':
IndexError: list index out of range

Please setup a RH 2.1 system so I can verify.
