Description Daniel Powell 2001-03-16 13:47:15 UTC
X installer and Text Installer lock every time I choose custom install. 
Right past the mouse selection comes the installation type. Click Custom, 
and it locks several seconds after i hit next.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot from RC2 CDROM
2. click through to the installation type
3. Choose Custom
4. Hit next


VT4 alt-sysreq-p gives me this shortly prior to failure.

What kind of hardware do you have?

Did all the previous betas work on this hardware?

Thanks!

Hardware
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/newbeta/betahardware.cgi?action=form&id=27

Abit BP6, dual Celeron 400.... etc etc etc... 
all previous betas up till RC1 worked fine....

Look at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29591
for more info regarding this bug... they are pretty much the same... 
but different RCs.

I havent been able to install since Florence Beta3.

this machine has been known to run versions of redhat from 6.1 - 7.1B3
as well as win2k and 98
