Description of problem: The install fails when attempting to install nfs-utils-1.0.6-39 package. I attempted both a CD install and a HTTP install and in both cases it failed at the same spot. When switching the partition type to LVM, the problem went away and install worked as expected. I did not have the same problem with an i386 install on the same hardware. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Well I reproduced it will two different sources. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot installer with reiserfs, create reiserfs partitions for /, /usr, /home, etc. 2. Attempt an install. Actual results: Fails on the nfs-util packages claim that either the file is bad or there's no room on the device. Expected results: Installs without problems. Additional info: Ran installer with selinux=0 as I was told it doesn't like reiserfs. Partition sizes /boot - 100mb (ext3) / - 1GB (reiserfs) /tmp - 1GB (reiserfs) /usr - 10GB (reiserfs) /home - 5GB (reiserfs)
As all of the text around the undocumented reiserfs option claims, reiserfs is unsupported. This is one of the reasons.
