Description of problem: Received a traceback on PS3 firmware 2.0 PPC with f8 installation. I had to transcribe the message because ALT F[1-7] function keys were not usable. Google reports similar problems http://julipedia.blogspot.com/2007/10/got-it-ps3.html#c7668625964381266145 http://julipedia.blogspot.com/2007/10/got-it-ps3.html#c1098426015556577328 Traceback follows: Running anaconda 11.3.0.50 the Fedora system installer - please wait. Traceback (most recent call last) File"/usr/bin/anaconda", line 779, in < module> floppy Device = probeHW(opts, x_already_set, xserver) File /usr/bin/anaconda line 421, in prowbeHW xserver.probeHW(skipMouseProbe = skipmouseprobe, forceDriver = opts.xdriver) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site_packages/rhpxl/xserver.py", line 87 in probeHW self.videohw = videocard.VideoCardInfo (forceDriver = forceDriver) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site_packages/rhpxl/videocard.py", line 149, in __init__ elif osname()[4].count("ppc" ) > 0 and cmd.pcidom > 0: Atribute Error device instance has no attribute 'pcidom' install exited abnormally[1/1] sending termination signals ... done. ... Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 11.3.0.50 How reproducible: Each time the f8 installation is attempted. Steps to Reproduce: 1. I updated to PS3 firmware 2.0. 2. I created sha1sumed the PPC*iso files. After burning the media I verified the media for f8 on DVD. I also attempted a boot.iso and NFS server install. 3. I installed the kexec module as per RFE bug 235612. I had to use the otheros.bld file from http://ozlabs.org/~jk/projects/petitboot/ because the version here http://david.woodhou.se/otheros.bld is "corrupt". ( I sent an email to David) 4. This was successful because I was able to boot into text mode anaconda. 5. After all all the stage one information was entered, the transition to anaconda produced a pcidom trace back. Actual results: Failed to install f8 on PS3 PPC hardware. Expected results: Installation of f8 on PS3. Additional info: Is there some additional hardware information that you'd like me to attach in order to solve or investigate the error?
