The installation program crashes when a driver disk containing smp drivers is used on a uniprocessor installation and the option "Install everything" is selected. This problem is reproducable using RedHat Linux 7.0 ("install dd") and the dd160.img LSILogic driver disk for SYM53C1010 based systems on a uniprocessor. Anaconda apparently hasn't generated the /mnt/sysimage/lib/modules/2.2.16-22smp subtree, but it attempts to copy the .../lib/modules/2.2.16-22smp/sym53c8xx.o driver into the scsi-subdirectory.

If you do not choose install everything does it work ok?
It works OK if we install without "install everything".
Erik is it possible the enterprise kernel could be causing problems?
No, it seems to be the smp modules getting in the way. We need to test this.
Fixed for next release.

download http://people.redhat.com/msw/dd-updates.img and write it to a floppy disk. This is an "anaconda updates" disk. Use "linux updates dd" along with the driver disk you are using. You will be prompted to insert the disk. This will prevent the traceback.
