Description of problem: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try to install RHEL4 u3 on a HP ProLiant DL360 G3 2. Use the graphical installer 3. Actual results: After initial configuration and package selection, the installer starts creating filesystems. This is where it hangs, if configured to use /, /var, and swap, it hangs about 80% on the way to creating /var, if using the default auto partition setup, about 80% on the way to creating /boot System hard locks, so there is no way to change to another tty to see what's up. Expected results: Installation as normal. Additional info: Tried on a couple of proliants, works fine on DL360 G4's, or G3/G4 380's. Choices made during the pre-install configuration doesn't seem to matter, changes to the partition table changes where it hangs, but it never passes the file system creation step. Text mode installation works as expected, but it doesn't have the minimal package selection option, so this isn't really a viable workaround unless one feels inclined to remove the extra 500 MB worth of packages manually after installation. All the tested boxes have had the following configuration: Xeon DP 2.4 GHz processor HP SmartArray 5i/64 MB(cciss) 2x36 GB SCSI drives in a RAID1 configuration. 1 GB of RAM. Put another way, pretty much the standard HP configuration. These have previously been running Redhat 8.0 without issue.
This will be fixed in U4
