Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 200494
Graphical ftp install failed because anaconda cannot find mousedev module
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:11:38 EST
Description of problem: I had attempted to do a ftp install of rawhide 20060727, but anaconda failed to get into the graphical mode (falls gracefully back to text mode though). Looking thru the logs, it detects the graphic card right, found the usb mouse, and was trying to load a 'mousedev module', but that was not found and it printed so garbage to screen while falling to the text mode. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
mousedev is built into our kernels -- this is probably more one of the other graphical startup bugs which we fixed on Friday.
Created attachment 133526 [details] Anaconda log
May mousedev module is not the problem, but graphical ftp install still fails with today's anaconda (20060802). Graphical install of FC6-test1 works with this system (iso on a usb disk). Log attached
How does it fail? There's nothing in the log to indicate failure
I'm sorry for the poor choice of word; the install didn't fail, it's just that it drops into text mode while i was expecting a click through install.
