From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.0; Windows 98; DigExt) Description of problem: I am installing to an IBM laptop A20m. I successfully installed this software before on this laptop with another harddisk using the Graphical install as a workstation. This time I was using the custom install following the instructions in the book: "Red Hat Linux 7 Weekend Crash course". Everything went fine up to completing the video selection and it was time to begin the installation and it gave me an error trying to mount hda2 with the attached logfile. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Use Druid to create partitions Root and Swap on 2Gig partition 2.Complete all selection criteria 3.Begin installation Actual Results: error message mounting hda2 Expected Results: Installation should have proceeded normally Additional info: Here's the error message I saved!
