How did it fail?

Comment 2 Johnny Ljunggren 2008-05-05 17:19:25 EDT

Sorry for the incomplete info and late reply. Here goes:
Anaconda stops instantly after selecting yes to start network.
This is the output:
../textw/network_text.py 615
  dev = self.chooseNetworkDevice(screen)
../textw/network_text.py 511
  UnicodeDecodeError='ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 4: ordinal
not in range (128)

And also, I selected norwegian language and keyboard before the network selection.

Comment 3 Bug Zapper 2008-05-14 06:12:13 EDT

Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA.

Comment 4 Jeremy Katz 2008-05-29 16:27:04 EDT

I can't reproduce this with Fedora 9 and I believe that this would have had the
same root cause as bug 443040.  Are you still seeing this with Fedora 9 final?
