installer dies with io error 30 /mnt/sys...something mounted reqd only
Last modified: 2008-05-06 12:36:31 EDT
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061010 Firefox/2.0 Description of problem: Somewhere towards the middle of installation (of packages) anaconda dies with io error 30 and complains that the fs /mnt/sys...something/... is mounted read only (ie.the attempted write failed). Also, since I am not able to save the stacktrace from the debug session, I cannot include in this message. Anacond exception handler prodes no method or tool to save the debug info on disk somewhere. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): fedora core 6 - x86_64-DVD.iso How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Download fc-6-x86_64-DVD.iso 2.Burn it onto DVD media 3.Install fc-6-x86_64 on an AMD Athlon64 processor. Actual Results: Anaconda crashes with an unxpected exception (failed to write o) Expected Results: No Trouble Additional info: Anaconda debugger provides no way to save the stacktrace onto hard drive, so I could send it redhat later.
Can you provide the complete traceback you received?
Folks, I am still waiting for info on how I can save the stack backtrace from the anacoda debug screen. So far I have not seen any method by which I can save the stack backtrace from the anaconda debug gui interface. Any info about this would help me attach the bt to this bug.
There's a button to save to floppy as well as a way to save to remove (via scp). Alternately, you can switch to tty2 and grab things from there (the file is /tmp/anacdump.txt)
