Description of problem: anaconda fails with "unhandled exception occurred" details: Traceback (most recent calls first) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/image.py", line 162 in systemMounted fsset.filesystemSpace(chroot)[0][0], ... yuminstall.py ... line 978 ... backendinstall.py .. line 228 ... Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): F-6.92-ppc-DVD.iso How reproducible: boot: linux boot: linux text Steps to Reproduce: 1. attempt overwrite install 2. 3. Actual results: failed install Expected results: install o.k. Additional info: Machine Name: Power Mac G5 Machine Model: PowerMac7,3 CPU Type: PowerPC G5 (3.0) Number Of CPUs: 2 CPU Speed: 2.5 GHz L2 Cache (per CPU): 512 KB Memory: 1 GB Bus Speed: 1.25 GHz Boot ROM Version: 5.1.8f7 BTW Fedora Core 6 only partly installs even after using the rescue option. e.g. terminal doesn't work. I'm looking for a 64-bit toolchain for this machine. I am willing to be an active tester to get the PowerPC version of Fedora Core running cleanly. I don't want Fedora to stop supporting PowerPC as Ubuntu has done so I'll help if there is anything I can do. Ross
Please attach the complete traceback to this bug report. It contains information useful for debugging this problem.
