Hello; First off I would like to state that this problem I had with both the iso image and downloaded archive of separate files required to install Red Hat 6.2. During the install after I selected what partitions would be used for installing RH (using Disk Druid, text mode), I get a message stating "install exited abnormally -- received signal 11", and then the install barfs, the cd rom ejects and then im rebooting. I have checked the RH web site in regards to this and it had stated that: " Signal 11s and signal 7s are errors indicating a hardware error in memory or on the bus. This can be due to problems in executables or with the hardware of the system. The Linux kernel uses a lot more capabilities of the CPU, Cache, and memory, and is more prone to faulting on marginal hardware. " I know that with Red Hat installation of 5.2 (Manhattan?) and 6.1 (cartman, 2.2.12-20) during the install process I had not received an error like this at any point in time. In fact each of those installations went perfectly. In addition to this the only hardware problem I have ever had with any version of Linux, or UNIX is the fact that my video card (Intel i810) wasn't supported by the XFree86 project until the release that is contained in the RH 6.2 distribution. As a possible workaround to the "signal 11" problem I went into my bios (which is a Compaq proparitory bios) and set the bios back to factory default settings. However this did not resolve the problem. Is it possible that the installer in RH 6.2 reacts and utilizes the hardware just slightly different enough that the install cannot continue when the disk druid exits? In addition to this I have tried to install RH 6.2 in graphical mode however it cannot load the graphics, (unsupported i810_gart_module) however unlike the installer in RH 6.1 the installer there picks a default 16 color and 640 x 480 resoulion. Is there any possible way to get the installer to use a basic X server for graphics?
It would help to know what your partition tables look like, and how you selected them for use by the installer before the error occurs.
Please reopen this bug if you continue to have problems.
