Description Charles Ferguson 2005-08-29 01:28:24 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 1.0.3705)

Description of problem:
I have tried CDs (from two locations), DVDs (from two locations) and FTP from only one location. 
I am running out of patience and DVDs (good thing they make RW DVDs).

This computer did have a previous distribution of Linux (Xandros). It worked well. I was hoping it would get better. :(  

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Begin install process - have tried CD, DVD, and ftp install
2.Choose packages
3.Last chance to make changes - go ahead and install
4.Wait - at the end of install - 
  

Actual Results:  I get exception error

Expected Results:  I should be able to boot up and enjoy the Linux world.

Could you enter "memtest86" at the boot prompt on the CD to run a memory test
program?  Let it run for multiple cycles and post your results.

I have allowed the test to run over an hour (1:14 and a few seconds). Four (4) 
passes 0 (ZERO) errors.

I chose to allow Linux choose the partitions and their sizes. 

I tried a motherboard IDE SCSI controler and have changed to an standard IDE 
controler. No differance.

FYI - I went through the Media check on the DVDs and CDs (last set of each) - 
Media checks good
