From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.77 [de] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.3-7 i686) Description of problem: Installing RH 7.1 on my "Dell Inspiron 3200" crashes when the install process comes to the point where the SysVinit-2.78-15 package should be installed. I get: "install exited abnormally sending termination signals ... " etc. How reproducible: Always Genrally, the installation process only works when choosing "expert" modus; at all other modi the install exited before it came to install various chosen packages. I tried nearly any possible setting (automated install/partition, user defined install etc. & get always the same result when (or maybe directly after) SysVinit-2.78-15 should be installed. On the same notebook I can install any Red Hat version <= 7.0 without any problems.
This just confirms bug 36123 ... No solution is found yet.
In any case, it's an installer problem, not a sysvinit problem.
O.k., in this case (with "normal" install) and even on a Compaq machine, where the installer ran through I saw some lines rushing over the screen pointing on some Gtk(+) error. Btw, Mandrake 8.0 runs through perfectly - is just horrobly slow.
Can you look on VC3 and VC4 and see if you see any error messages?
