Anaconda crashes with traceback under (at least) the following circumstances: qa0306.0 tree / anaconda-7.1-2.20010305163 text mode Installation over NFS laptop installation (Dell Inspiron 3500) defaults for all other choices (english, firewall rules, etc.) On the screen when the X configuration is about to be tested (post- package installation), select the "skip" button (instead of testing the selected X configuration) causes the traceback. Traceback to be attached shortly. Please let me know if more details are required

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 30870 ***
Problem still occuring in qa0307.0 tree. I don't think this is the same as bug #30870, if I read Trond's notes right, he chooses a different path than I do in the installer, and the difference is the cause of my error (and resulting traceback). Attaching traceback for qa0307.0 tree shortly.

This defect considered MUST-FIX (showstopper) for Florence Gold
Please test in the qa0309.1 tree, should be fixed.
Verified fix in the qa0314.0 tree
also verified in qa0309.1, closing.
*** Bug 31764 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
... ummm -- my test condition in 31764 was not a striaght skip, but a failed config ... is the logic path the same (it would seem not ...) and was it tested?
Good point. The laptop that I opened this bug on originally failed Xconfigurator, it now (as of today's build) works properly, so your case for #31764 was not tested fully.
... make that not tested directly by me.
Re-open for confirmation of tested path on failed rather than skipped Xconfigurator
The logic path is the same. The original bug was trying to unlink a file that wasn't there...
