Description Jeremey Davis 2000-11-04 06:22:05 UTC
I attempted to install a PARTIONLESS version of Redhat Linux 7.0 and at the end of installation I was never prompted to make a boot disk, 
thus 
I have no way to access Linux on my system. I also received the following error:

Traceback (innermost last):
  File "/usr/bin/anaconda", line 438, in ?
    intf.run(todo, test = test)
  File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/text.py", line 1030, in run
    rc = apply (step[1](), step[2])
  File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/text.py", line 507, in __call__
    if todo.doInstall ():
  File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/todo.py", line 1466, in doInstall

Comment 3 Brock Organ 2000-12-21 19:39:24 UTC
There is an update disk that should fix this. Download it, gzip it, dd (or
 rawrite) it to a floppy disk. When you boot into the install, specify "linux
 updates" at the boot prompt. The install will prompt you to install this floppy
 when it needs it.

 ftp://people.redhat.com/ewt/mountupd.img.gz

 It should fix this problem. Please reopen this bug if it doesn't.
