Upgrading from RH 6.0 to 7.1 via SCSI CD-ROM (Advansys controller) in text
or GUI mode - when the program starts searching for Red Hat installations i
get a traceback:

<failed>

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.boot from of RH 7.1 CD
2.press enter for GUI install or type "text" at boot prompt (doesn't
matter)
3.select Upgrade installation
4.Take defaults
5.At "Searching for Red Hat installations" screen i get a traceback

Actual Results:  traceback

Expected Results:  search for other RH installations.

Computer is a multi-boot (LILO) system: Win ME/RH 6.0/RH Wolverine/Mandrake
7.2. Windows occupies the first 2 HDs. Linux systems have the last (3rd)
drive. 384MB RAM - PIII 800. All HDs are IDE. CD is SCSI - HP 9210i. Also
has an OnStream SC30i attached to the Advansys controller for backups. Have
had no problems installing/running RH 6.0/RH Wolverine or MDK 7.2. Linux
file systems were carved using PARTED v1.4.9.

Comment 1 Brent Fox 2001-04-18 04:13:44 UTC
This looks like a dupe of bug #20006.  Did you get the traceback after selecting
a partition or before you even made a selection?

Comment 2 linuxguy 2001-04-18 12:03:05 UTC
Was never given the chance to select a partition. Also, i've looked at bug
#20006 and they do appear similar, but after reading the comments am not so
sure. I have no RAID0 partitions on that drive.

Comment 3 Brent Fox 2001-04-19 21:04:42 UTC

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 20006 ***

Comment 4 Brent Fox 2001-04-19 21:09:44 UTC
Sorry, you are right...this is related, but not an exact dupe.

Comment 5 Michael Fulbright 2001-04-20 15:39:08 UTC
When the traceback occurs, if you goto VC2 (cntl-alt-f2) and type 'mount', what
is the output?

Comment 6 linuxguy 2001-04-23 01:23:32 UTC
Found the problem - It was a screwed up ext2 file system on /dev/hdc14.

Just my opinion: It would be nice if Anaconda could give the user more
intelligent feedback when it finds errors (like bad file systems), instead of
undecipherable Tracebacks and making us file bug reports.
