after supplying root password, anaconda popup's "...package..." and

Comment 1 Falko Pilz 2005-03-02 13:03:10 UTC
Hello,

It should be related on the nfs share. This error occurs when the
content of all 4 CD and the extras CD are copied to a solid NFS-Share.
After I used a share where the plain ISO-files lies, it goes excellent.

Regards 

Falko

Yes, you can only have the base CDs in the directory.  This error case
should be handled a little bit better in U1.

I installed with the RHEL4-U6-re20071108.0-x86_64-AS-DVD-ftp.iso on a nfs share.
 did not see this issue pop up.

This still an issue with current RHEL4?
