Description of problem: On PLAYSTATION 3 (60GB model), installer crashes with DeviceException. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda-11.5.0.28-1 How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start installer. 2. Go to 'Warning! This is pre-relase software!' page and select 'Install anyway'. Actual results: anaconda crashes with the following message: Traceback (most recent call first): File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/parted/device.py", line 48, in __init__ self.__device = _ped.device_get(path) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/storage/devices.py", line 671, in __init__ self.partedDevice = parted.Device(path=self.path) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/storage/devicetree.py", line 980, in addUdevDevice initcb=cb) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/storage/devicetree.py", line 1272, in populate self.addUdevDevice(dev) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/storage/__init__.py", line 221, in reset self.devicetree.populate() File "/usr/lib/anaconda/storage/__init__.py", line 64, in storageInitialize anaconda.id.storage.reset() File "/usr/lib/anaconda/dispatch.py", line 205, in moveStep rc = stepFunc(self.anaconda) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/dispatch.py", line 128, in gotoNext self.moveStep() File "/usr/lib/anaconda/text.py", line 697, in run anaconda.dispatch.gotoNext() File "/usr/bin/anaconda", line 1012, in <module> anaconda.intf.run(anaconda) DeviceException: Could not find device for path /dev/sda Expected results: Installer goes on. Additional info: /dev/sda should be one of flash memory card readers on PS3 60GB model. When I tried rawhide, no flash memory card was in the readers. Other platforms than PS3, including x86 PCs, may have the same problem if any empty card readers are connected. However, I haven't tried that.
