Installation on PII-400 with 2 disk drives, one used for windows, SCSI-card with som cd and scanner. I dowloaded the iso-version of redhat 7. burned om cd. Created a boot disk from the cd. Copied the /RedHat/* stuff onto the windows disk drive. (due to other errors, see 17840) And started to install using the boot disk. I've tried both, giving and not giving the win-disk a mount point and both custom install and workstation install. Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/bin/anaconda.real", line 438, in ? intf.run(todo, test = test) File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/text.py", line 1030, in run File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/textw/packages_text.py", line 33, in __call__ File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/todo.py", line 539, in getCompsList File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/harddrive.py", line 43, in readComps File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/comps.py", line 459, in __init__ File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/comps.py", line 360, in readCompsFile TypeError: comp file version 3 or 4 expected Local variables in innermost frame: arch2: i686
Created attachment 3581 [details] The error-file produced during installation.
This looks like an incorrect ISO but Im not 100% sure
Did you edit RedHat/base/comps? The beginning should be like: --- 4 1 Base { [ ...] --- The installer might crash with, for example, with DOS carriage return/line feed characters.
I agree - please make sure that the comps file was not changed when you copied it.
I downloaded the iso using ftp from www.sunet.se (using Linux) and burned it directly. I haven't edit it at all. It worked when I installed from the same cds on another machine. (from an IDE-cdromreader, no SCSI-card, and different graphics card etc) > Did you edit RedHat/base/comps? The beginning should be like: no, and the beginning av that file on the cd looks like that... Btw is there a md5sum from windows? (im stuck in that os right now)
Ah... the Base/Comps was chaged during the copy.... then that is the problem.
