In anaconda I was staring for so long on "Package Installation" screen (a text install this time but with 52xspeed CD) with all fields blank and waiting for an installation to start that I was already practically convinced that the whole process locked up. This when I _know_ that some anaconda stages may take a very long time. It would be nice to have at least some message "Ain't dead yet". Another cosmetics - after network configuration two rows of yellow dashes, like that: ------------ ------------ stay on a screen and even other boxes fail to erase them. Michal
There are two issues ... a) slowness of install with little/no feedback to show progress during the first steps of "Package Installation" b) cosmetic "-----" garbage text appearing We are aware of a), and hope to make future versions of anaconda better in that regard, so let's change the status of this bug to "Enhancement Request" ... I've filed b) as it's own issue (see bug 19246) to be able to deal with it separately ... :) Thanks for the your report!
