Description Jon Stanley 2008-05-17 00:14:02 UTC
Anaconda 11.4.1.1 - on the package selection screen, if you click in the
checkbox for "additional Fedora software", the screen turns immediately turns
black and the machine is frozen hard.  This is in VMWare, I redirected serial
output to a file, and used console=ttyS0 console=tty0 on the command line and
didn't see anything :(  This has reproduced every time, 3 times now :).

So you can't switch ttys at this point?  How long did you let it sit? 

Comment 2 Jon Stanley 2008-05-19 16:25:50 UTC
Yeah, can't switch tty's or anything.  I left it sitting that way for several
hours with no change.

Comment 3 Andy Lindeberg 2008-06-06 18:45:32 UTC
The ability to select "Additional Fedora Software" has been removed. Can you try
this with a newer version of Rawhide and let us know if it freezes with any
other selection?

Since there are insufficient details provided in this report for us to investigate the issue further, and we have not received feedback to the information we have requested above, we will assume the problem was not reproducible, or has been fixed in one of the updates we have released for the reporter's distribution.

Users who have experienced this problem are encouraged to upgrade to the latest update of their distribution, and if this issue turns out to still be reproducible in the latest update, please reopen this bug with additional information.

Closing as INSUFFICIENT_DATA.
