Description Mark McLoughlin 2006-06-23 17:20:08 UTC 
Sequence goes like:

  1) Run anaconda with "linux method=http://foo"
  2) Fetching stage2 fails, you're returned to the FTP setup (see bug #196483)
  3) Go back, select http install method
  4) Next, re-dhcp
  5) Next, fill in correct hostname and path
  6) Next, crash

*** glibc detected *** /sbin/loader: double free or corruption (!prev):
0x00000000008f97f0 ***

Bactrace is all jumbled up, and doesn't look useful anyway

Reproduced this twice

This works with Rawhide today.  We've fixed up a lot of these post FC6 test 1.
