Description Brian Brock 2006-09-05 16:51:41 EDT

Anaconda stops after detection of graphics controller.  A dialog appears on a
black background, stating:

[Error]
Error opening /dev/sdb: No medium found.

rawhide-20060805 (possibly earlier)
anaconda-11.1.0.89-1
kernel-2.6.17-1.2617.2.1.fc6

My system has one SATA drive:

Comment 1 Brian Brock 2006-09-05 16:57:05 EDT

The underlying problem is when parted is called:

CRITICAL: parted exception: Error: Error opening /dev/sdb: No medium found

Comment 2 Jeremy Katz 2006-09-06 01:55:06 EDT

Can you attach the full /tmp/anaconda.log and /tmp/syslog

Comment 3 Brian Brock 2006-09-06 12:13:31 EDT

Install of rawhide-20060806 is crashing at a different point during
installation, but initially appears to not have this problem.
