Created attachment 15284 [details] Bug # 35861 This bug is a duplicate of bug #16686. It looks like you didn't format the / partition. Right after the Disk Druid screen, there is a screen asking you what partitions you want to format. Formatting / is absolutely necessary, so if you don't do it, the installer with crash later when it tries to copy data to an unformatted partition. We have added a lot more error handling code since 7.0 was released, so this problem should not occur in future versions. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 16686 *** |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; CS 2000; Windows 98) Installation detected an error at one of my partitions (?) Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1.Created free hard drive space on both C: and D: of 10G drive; /boot below cylinder 1024, everything else at top of drive. Used Partition Commander. 2.Re-set BIOS to boot at CD-ROM, inserted Red Hat 7. 3.Used Druid to assign Linux to free spaces created on my Win98 machine by Partition Commander. Installation progressed to X configuration when error message appeared. Dialog box had me save .txt file to A: and sent me to Bugzilla. Actual Results: Don't have time tonight to try again. Expected Results: Will be covering this in class tomorrow at 10am Pacific time; can you e-mail me by then?
