From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows 98)


I was forced to use custom installation since by selecting Workstation or 
Server the program couldn't find enough space on my harddrive (whereas 
there is enuough). When attempting custom installation in both GUI and 
text mode, I got an error message, then the machine will reboot.



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Boot with diskette
2.follow installation instructions (both GUI and TEXT)
3.
	

Actual Results:  Traceback (innermost last):
  File "/usr/bin/anaconda", line 438, in ?
    intf.run(todo, test = test)
