Description Need Real Name 2001-01-09 21:15:51 UTC
Machine is a Compaq Proliant ML530 with a Smart Array 5300 controller 
(cciss driver).  12 Ultra3 18.2GB 15K RPM drives.  512MB of RAM.  Text 
install.  Tried partitioning with both FDISK and Disk Druid.  Used 
anaconda update from errata page.

Install goes just as planned until it begins the post install (after the 
partitions are formatted and the packages are all installed).  Gets to 
about half and produces the bug report below.  If I switch to the ALT+F4 
screen, the message "<4>Neighbour Table Overflow" is repeated at the end 8 
times.  

Checking with Compaq as well...

Traceback (innermost last):
  File "/usr/bin/anaconda", line 438, in ?
    intf.run(todo, test = test)
  File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/text.py", line 1030, in
