Description Need Real Name 2000-11-15 18:10:59 UTC
This is the error I have encountered while installing Redhat Linux 7.0 
(Guinness) release.  

Traceback (innermost last):
  File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/iw/progress_gui.py", 
line 20, in run
    rc = self.todo.doInstall ()
  File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/todo.py", line 1469, in 
doInstall
    self.fstab.makeFileSystems()
  File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/fstab.py", line 643, in 
makeFilesystems
       self.progresswindow, - ("Loopback"),
   File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/isys.py", line 78 in 
ddfile.

Could you please attach the entire error message that is reported?

Comment 2 Michael Fulbright 2000-11-15 19:43:07 UTC
Forwarding from user, they replied to me via email:

   The information window showed only this much. The screen froze and I
couldn't scroll down to completely see the rest of the error message. I
tried this twice and got stuck at the same place.


Comment 3 Brock Organ 2000-11-15 22:17:52 UTC
were you performing a loopback install in GUI mode ...?

if so,  how much free space did you have, and what size did you specify for your
root and swap partitions ...?

Please reopen this report if you continue to have problems.
