Description of problem: I wanted to install Fedora 9 Preview in VirtualBox and right after I selected my keyboard (de-latin1-nodeadkeys / the default for German language) a traceback appears. How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. create Linux 2.6 virtual machine in VirtualBox 1.5.6 2. try to install from F9 Preview in textmode 3. select german / de-latin1-nodeadkeys Actual results: Traceback Expected results: The next step in the installer should be shown. Additional info: I downloaded the iso via bittorrent and it matches the sha1sum.

This also happens when I want to install it with virt-manager and qemu (no kvm, but kqemu).
It works in VirtualBox when I select "English" as a language and de-latin1-nodeadkeys or us as keyboard.
When you're at the debugger prompt there, can you please type: print drive and paste the results here? Thanks.

Thanks, fixed in git
Tested, confirmed fixed.
