Description of problem: Insert DVD media of Fedora 8 (i386), skip media check or perform the check and short after that I receive the crash with some kind of trace. As far as I can see, it's possible to force this crash with "acpi=off" or "nolapic noapic" as kernel parameters, otherwise it just hangs and nothing happends. It also occurs with network boot and other media, so the media itself is not broken or so. Oh, Fedora 7 (i386) with all updates is working very well - installable via a plain Fedora 7 DVD media as released and available, no respin. --- snipp --- [0x8091f93] [0x80501c4] [0x8050995] [0x805b770] [0x805c153] [0x804b207] [0x8175004] [0x8048151] ======= Memory map: ======== 00110000-00111000 r-xp 00110000 00:00 0 [vdso] 08048000-0828e000 r-xp 00000000 00:01 36 /sbin/loader 0828e000-08299000 rw-p 00245000 00:01 36 /sbin/loader 08299000-082d3000 rw-p 08299000 00:00 0 092e2000-093cc000 rw-p 092e2000 00:00 0 b7e00000-b7e26000 rw-p b7e00000 00:00 0 b7e26000-b7f00000 ---p b7e26000 00:00 0 b7fee000-b7ff2000 rw-p b7fee000 00:00 0 bfab5000-bfaca000 rw-p bffea000 00:00 0 [stack] --- snapp --- [...] 14:35:44 DEBUG : MD5SUM -> 61d58a7aebfa6cd2a40768e68b3ba4bd 14:35:44 DEBUG : skipsectors = 15 14:35:44 INFO : supported = 0 14:35:48 INFO : Loading SELinux policy 14:35:49 INFO : getting ready to spawn shell 14:35:49 INFO : modules to insert ide-cd 14:35:49 DEBUG : getModuleLocation: 2.6.23.1-42.fc8/i586 14:35:49 DEBUG : module(s) ide-cd not found 14:35:49 INFO : load module set done 14:35:49 INFO : modules to insert 14:35:49 DEBUG : getModuleLocation: 2.6.23.1-42.fc8/i586 14:35:49 INFO : load module set done 14:35:49 INFO : modules to insert 14:35:49 DEBUG : getModuleLocation: 2.6.23.1-42.fc8/i586 14:35:49 INFO : load module set done 14:35:49 INFO : modules to insert 14:35:49 INFO : modules to insert pcmcia_core <98>^E5 H<F7><CC><CC> <CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC> <CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC><CC> <CC><CC><CC><CC><CC>@ pcmcia 14:35:49 DEBUG : getModuleLocation: 2.6.23.1-42.fc8/i586 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda-11.3.0.50-2 How reproducible: Everytime, see above.

Hum? Doing the network installation a second time (!), it seems to work. The strange looking/interesting line now for me is: INFO : modules to insert pcmcia_core Assamese pcmcia DEBUG : getModuleLocation: 2.6.23.1-42.fc8/i586 DEBUG : module(s) pcmcia_core Assamese pcmcia not found INFO : load module set done DEBUG : probing buses [...] What's wrong with the Assamese module on the DVD media? The media worked on other computers very well and seems to have no errors.
