Installation failed after partitioning and formatting harddisk. System configuration : 200MHz Pentium MMX, 128 MB SDRAM, 17 GB Quantum Fireball Hard Disk, Matrox Millenium Graphics card with 2MB RAM, Hitachi CDROM, Intel Etherpro 100+ NIC, FDD/Samtron 15" Monitor, Creative 32bit Pnp Soundblaster card. The harddisk had three previous partions first (boot partition) is DOS16 300 MB, Second NTFS 1.6 GB third NTFS 2 GB. Windows NT 4 is in second partion, the remaining space is partioned as / - root 1.8 GB (4th partition) /usr 2 GB 5th partition /var 300 MB and swap 250 MB. Alternatively I have tried using single / partion as the fourth partition. Installation proceeds up to Druid and formatting. After formatting is completed, this report appears. For additional info, I have installed Redhat 6.0 and 6.2 in the same computer, same partions before successfully. V. Ravichandran CFTRI Mysore 570 013, India Exception Occured An internal error occured in the installation program. Please report this error to Red Hat (through bugzilla.redhat.com) website. The information on this failure may be saved to a floppy disk, and will help Red Hat in fixing the problem.
