From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.0; Windows 98; DigExt) I am a new Linux user and was trying to do a fresh install. I got to the Installing packages screen and told it to install. Then I got a window that said "Exceptional Error" and told me to save the following string to a floppy and submit it to this website:Traceback (innermost last): File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/iw/progress_gui.py", line 20, in run rc = self.todo.doInstall () File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/todo.py", line 1470, in doInstall self.fstab.turnOnSwap() File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/fstab.py", line 406, in turnOnSwap isys.swapon (file) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/isys.py", line 142, in swapon return _isys.swapon (path) SystemError: (22, 'Invalid argument') Local variables in innermost frame: path: /tmp/swap/hda4 ToDo object: (itodo ToDo p1 (dp2 S'method' p3 (iimage CdromInstallMethod p4 (dp5 S'progressWindow' p6 <failed> That was on the first attempt. Upon further retries it will never let me get past the choosing Installation Type screen. Reproducible: Couldn't Reproduce
