From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041111 Firefox/1.0 Description of problem: Bad: When performing a new Fedora Core 3 installation utilizing the linux xfs option, the installation hangs during the finalization process. During the installation, I chose to make all the partitions, except swap, xfs. Good: Oddly, after the first installation attempt fails you can perform a second attempt and the installation is then successful. Note: All of my installations were on disks that previously had other files system types like ext3, or ufs2. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora Core 3 Release How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Attempt a fresh installation of Fedora Core 3 using the linux xfs option. Actual Results: The install appears to hang after install the xfs utilities on disk 4. Expected Results: The installer should have finished the final installation routine, and asked the user to reboot. Additional info: I had the same results on three seperate systems, attempting the installation a number of times on each. I also downloaded and created a new set of disks and had the same results. Both sets of disks passed the media tests on a number of different computers.
