Since this is a hard drive install, how did you do the download? Did you download the iso images to your hard drive and then do an install? Also, are you sure that you did the download in binary format? This bug looks similar to bug #21675 and bug #18019. I'm experiencing the same problem..... The response listings to the availiable anaconda patch show the true extent of this problem.... there are many users who have downloaded the RPMS and base files from FTP servers and had the same subsequent error when trying to install.... The anaconda fix update simply doesn't seem to work... |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows 98) After downloading linux 7.0 from RedHat FTP site, I made the boot diskette, using the boot image and rawrite from the site. However, when I started installation, after creating a user account, an internal error occured during the process of reading the package. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot from a floppy, or start installation using autoboot.bat <Then the rest didn't matter much, because I tried using different options and different partitioning methods, ranging from using PartitionMagic to make Linux partitions to letting Druid create the partitions> Actual Results: Same exact error for maybe 4~5 times. The Error Message: Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/bin/anaconda.real", line 438, in ? intf.run(todo, test = test) File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/text.py", line 1030, in run File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/textw/packages_text.py", line 33, in __call__ File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/todo.py", line 539, in getCompsList File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/harddrive.py", line 43, in readComps File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/comps.py", line 459, in __init__ File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/comps.py", line 428, in readCompsFile File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/comps.py", line 101, in __getitem__ KeyError: at Local variables in innermost frame: self: <comps.HeaderList instance at 824e7b8> item: at ToDo object: (itodo ToDo p1 (dp2 S'method' p3 (iharddrive HardDriveInstallMethod p4 (dp5 S'fstype' p6 S'vfat' p7 sS'isMounted' p8 I1 sS'fnames' p9 (dp10 <failed>
