During the installation the following exception occurred: File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/block/device.py", line 631, in get_map for part in parts: File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/block/device.py", line 739, in activate self.map.dev.mknod(self.prefix+self.name) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/dmraid.py", line 162, in startAllRaid rs.activate(mknod=True) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/partedUtils.py", line 609, in startDmRaid dmList = dmraid.startAllRaid(driveList) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/partedUtils.py", line 971, in openDevices self.startDmRaid() File "/usr/lib/anaconda/upgrade.py", line 91, in findExistingRoots anaconda.id.diskset.openDevices() File "/usr/lib/anaconda/upgrade.py", line 68, in findRootParts anaconda.id.rootParts = findExistingRoots(anaconda) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/dispatch.py", line 200, in moveStep rc = stepFunc(self.anaconda) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/dispatch.py", line 123, in gotoNext self.moveStep() File "/usr/lib/anaconda/gui.py", line 919, in nextClicked self.anaconda.dispatch.gotoNext() ValueError: size must be positive Local variables in innermost frame: table: ['0', '0', '(null)', '(null)'] self: <block.device.RaidSet instance at 0xb7b8306c> part: (null) parts: ['0', '0', '(null)', '(null)'] map_dev: <function map_dev at 0xb7bffa74>

The problem seems to be disappeared when I removed both disks from the promised PC100 IDE card. At that moment the BIOS of the promised interfaces isn't installed and the anaconda installation continued as usual.
Can you try with the current development tree? I think we should be catching and avoiding this now
Fedora Core 5 and Fedora Core 6 are, as we're sure you've noticed, no longer test releases. We're cleaning up the bug database and making sure important bug reports filed against these test releases don't get lost. It would be helpful if you could test this issue with a released version of Fedora or with the latest development / test release. Thanks for your help and for your patience. [This is a bulk message for all open FC5/FC6 test release bugs. I'm adding myself to the CC list for each bug, so I'll see any comments you make after this and do my best to make sure every issue gets proper attention.]
