From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.0.3705; .NET CLR 1.1.4322) Description of problem: When using kiskstart with FC3, if "part" is defined, installer crashes with "install exited unexpectedly" with no traceback. If "part" is not defined in the kickstart file, the partition information is requested and everything proceeds to install ok. If Fedora/base/*, isolinux/* and .discinfo are taken from FC2 and replace FC3's version, everything is as expected. The same happens on the i386 version, so it is not a 64bit issue. Attached are a copy of ks.cfg and isolinux/isolinux.cfg that are the only changes to the FC3 iso images. This is not an issue with FC2. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Take FC3 disc1 ISO image 2.Add ks.cfg in root of iso image 3.Update isolinux/isolinux.cfg 4.Burn new iso and try to build system Actual Results: Build gets as far as preparing rpms for installation and then crashes with "install exited unexpectedly" Expected Results: The install should successfully complete Additional info: 5.Comment out the 3 "part" lines from ks.cfg and retry - now all works after using Disk Druid.
Created attachment 106789 [details] ks.cfg I do not believe that the packages selected make any difference - one of the iterations was to use only the loaded packes on a built FC3 system - which still failed.
Created attachment 106790 [details] isolinux.cfg

OK, but I am not doing this from a hard-disc install, and I am pretty confident that I do not go this code path - in particular, I am not using /dev within the ks.cfg file. I also did not get glibc complaining about any double frees etc.
