Expected results:

 * Should download the image and move to stage#2

Additional info:

 * This is a headless system ppc so I can't get tty[2-4].
 * Is there a shell.gz I could use for ppc?

I'm going to do a build of anaconda.  Could you please test the next rawhide and see if this problem still happens?

Comment 2 James Laska 2009-02-20 18:11:56 UTC
Not a problem on the Alpha on the same system
