Can you boot with linux nokill Then scp off the xorg.log from /tmp/ramfs/X.log and attach here. Can you also attach /tmp/anaconda.log
I can't mount my floppy drive to copy the logfiles on them. The X.log file has more than 800 lines, a little to big to write them down from screen. Any idea to copy the logfiles from the ramdrive to a floppy or memory stick? thx
Installation works ok with linux nokill option.
comment #2 - if you have another machine you can scp them off, you should be able to mount a usb memory fob. Comment #3 - odd. Can you try again without nokill in case that something transient was occuring?
Ok, i have tried the installation again without nokill and it works too. thx for help.
As this is non-reproducible I'm going to close. If you get it reproducing please feel free to reopen.
