Please attach the error message. Otherwise, it's nearly impossible for us to know exactly where it went wrong.
Here is the exact error message when anaconda dies: Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/bin/anaconda.real", line 435, in ? extraModules=extraModules) File "/var/tmp/anaconda- 7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/todo.py", line 375, in __init__ File "/var/tmp/anaconda- 7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/todo.py", line 245, in setByAbbrev KeyError: ja_JP.eucJP install exited abnormally sending termination signals....
Can you try this with 7.1 and see if the problem still exists? 7.1 has full Japanese support, whereas 7.0 was split into an English and a Japanese product.
I tried to duplicate this in 7.0J, and I could not. Things worked just fine for me...after rebooting, the contents of /etc/sysconfig/i18n are: LANG="ja_JP.eucJP" I wasn't doing a hard drive install, though...I was doing a cdrom install. However, this should make no difference. Can you post the kickstart file you were using?
