Could you please provide the complete anacdump.txt as an attachment?

Comment 2 James Sigler 2005-07-08 17:23:38 UTC
Created attachment 116523 [details]
anacdump.txt Text file

The same thing happens to me every time I try to load FC3 or K12LTSP 4.2.1.  I
attached the anacdump.txt file for you to see.	Can it be fixed?

Thanks,
James Sigler
