Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora Beta release. Cannot see an option to output anaconda version on the command line and it is not installed... How reproducible: Every time - I cannot install the OS Steps to Reproduce: 1. Insert DVD 2. run through first three steps of installer until select keyboard 3.

This should be fixed in post-beta rawhide. Thanks for the bug report.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 11 development cycle. Changing version to '11'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
