Description Mark 2000-10-01 13:12:00 UTC
When trying a custom install (it worked ok later with a full install), onto
a dual-boot (win98/Linux) system, after formatting the new filesystem, it
came up with the error message:

Traceback (innermost last):
   File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/iw/progress_gui.py",
line 20, in run
      rc = self.todo.doInstall ()
   File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/todo.py", line 1480, in
doInstall
      if self.method.systemMounted (self.fstab, self.instPath,
self.hdList.selected()):
   File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/image.py", line 46, in
systemMounted
      self.loopbackFIle = mntPoint + fstab.filesystemSpace (mntPoint)[0][0]
+ \
   File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/fstab.py", line 258, in
filesystemSpace
      space.append ((mntPoint, isys.fsSpaceAvailable(topMount + '/' +
mntPoint)))
   File "/usr/lib/anaconda/isys.py", line 16, in fsSpaceAvailable
      return _isys.devSpacefree (fsSystem)
   SystemError: (2, 'No such file or directory')

I know this problem only happens to me when I manually specify the packages
I want to install, because it worked fine when I told it to install
everything.
