From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.4.5-9 i686; en-US; rv:0.9.1) Gecko/20010609 Description of problem: Anaconda fails at the very end of the installation after the post installation. Using graphical install with custom setup and manual diskdruid filesystem setup it installs everything and performs the post installation. Right at the end of that or right after it (scrollbar is at 100%) i get the attached anaconda traceback. I selected grub as bootloader if that helps, but the system didn't come up afterewards, so i guess it has something to do with that. Here my partition layout: Disk /dev/hda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 3737 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 1 66 530113+ 82 Linux swap /dev/hda2 67 328 2104515 83 Linux /dev/hda3 329 590 2104515 83 Linux /dev/hda4 591 3737 25278277+ 83 Linux I installed on /dev/hda2. How reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1.Run installation as described 2.Wait till the very end for the traceback 3. Actual Results: System was basically completely installed but didn't boot Expected Results: Installation should have finished. Additional info:
Created attachment 21928 [details] Anaconda traceback
Seen this before - katzj is testing with an older python package. Thinking that recomilation has caused bad code generation.
I'm going to tag onto this one; apologies if it's not the same thing. TUI install of Fairfax beta1 over FTP. How Reproducible: Twice in a row, same thing. Symptom: At the very end, when the "Performing post install configuration" progress bar is filled red for the first six spaces, [Exception Occurred]: Traceback (innermost last) File "/usr/bin/anaconda", line 561, in ? intf.run(id, dispatch) File "/tmp/11581-i386/install//usr/lib/anaconda/text.py", line 386, in run File "/tmp/11581-i386/install//usr/lib/anaconda/dispatch.py", line 120, in gotoNext File "/tmp/11581-i386/install//usr/lib/anaconda/dispatch.py", line 185, in moveStep File "/tmp/11581-i386/install//usr/lib/anaconda/packages.py", line 572, in doInstall File "/tmp/11581-i386/install//usr/lib/anaconda/packages.py", line 713, in copyExtraModules ValueError: unpack tuple of wrong size The VT's don't seem to contain anything exceptional.
Same result with HTTP install. See bug 47039 for how I'm configuring TCP/IP, and bug 46746 for how it autopartitioned (I'm just accepting the default partitioning now; only steps 1-3 of that bug apply to this bug).

oops, duped wrong bug
Brent - this is a different bug, please refile your unpack tuple bug as another bug.
Done; see bug 47126. Sorry for the pollution. :-)

This defect considered MUST-FIX for Fairfax gold-release.
No real progress on this one yet - msw has enabled some code which should help isolate it (if it would just happen again).
Well, this has a complex history; I tacked onto this bug, was told my problem was different; created a new bug 47126, which was then marked as a duplicate of this. I would be happy to test here, on the hardware where it happened, if you have an updates disk with the new code.

fixed a double free in the rpm python binding that was causing this.
