Anaconda crashes displaying Release Notes
Last modified: 2005-10-31 17:00:50 EST
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.75 [en] (Win95; U) Description of problem: If the Release Notes are being displayed at the same time that the installer asks for the CD to be changed, the installer crashes. Found this out since the first time I tried installing 7.2 Anaconda crashed after the package tetex-fonts, the second time (not displaying Release Notes this time) it went fine. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1. Follow installation steps until Anaconda starts installing packages 2. Display Release notes 3. Wait until installer asks for next CD Actual Results: Anaconda crashes, dumps error messages Expected Results: Dialog box asking for next CD appearing on top of 'Release Notes' window Additional info: Note: This is actually for 7.2 but it's not available yet for selection in Bugzilla (yes, I bought the boxed set). The USB support in installer is great guys !
Changing component to 7.2 since it's available now.
I was unable to duplicate this behavior. I can't explain why it would fail for you once but then work the next time. Please reopen this bug if you can reproduce it reliably. Thanks for your report.
