Description of Problem: I am doing a "laptop" installation in "text" mode, when attempting to do the firewall configuration section, upon pressing "OK" I get "An unhandled exception has occured [sic]". This happens I even when I reboot and choose different options before pressing "OK". Also happens when I attempt a "Custom" installation. I'm running an IBM ThinkPad 365XD (Pentium II, 133 MHz) with 24MB of RAM. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): N/A How Reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot from a floppy using the "boot.img" image. Select "English" and "US keyboard". 2. Choose "Laptop" installation. 3. Select "Automatic" partitioning. 4. Choose "GRUB" boot-loader. 5. In firewall configuration leave defaults (i.e. "Medium" security) and simply press "OK". Actual Results: Get "Unhandled exception" and installation stops. Expected Results: Firewall configuration should have worked and install should have proceeded. Additional Information: Traceback (transcribed manually as carefully as possible) follows: Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/bin/anaconda", line 627 in ? intf.run(id, dispatch, configFileData) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/text.py", line 406 in run rc = apply(win, (self.screen, ) + args) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/textw/firewall_text.py", line 208, in __call__ for dev in devicelist.getSelection(): NameError: devicelist Looking at the Python code, I notice that "devicelist" is only set if the "if" statement ("if devices != []:") on line 71 is called. However in the "Pdb" debugger, if attempt to print this variable I get: (Pdb) print devices [] which leads me to suspect that if statement is not entered and hence "devicelist" is not set... and the NameError.

Fixed in CVS
Great to hear that it's fixed in CVS, however, where is the CVS repository for anaconda so I can test the fix? I figured it should probably be at: http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/anaconda/?cvsroot=rhl However, only the bootdisk, help text and po modules are listed there, not the Python code. Is this a "private" Red Hat CVS module, if so could you send me the fix by private e-mail. I'm happy to help out and test the fix for your QA people, but I need to be able to get it... ;-) If I could successfully get the fix, is there way I could apply the fix against a running anaconda (i.e. make the firewall configuration "work" on the fly, by manually applying the change in the .py/.pyc module) without having to rebuild the image, making a new ISO disk and re-burn?
I had a similar experiance. Install from the Skipjack CD, text mode, Custom , use Disk Druid for partitioning hdb, select no boot loader,on the "Firewall Configuration" screen after I press OK it crashes, regardless of which FW config I select. I have no ethernet card, maybe that is important ? I attach one anaconda dump
Created attachment 50824 [details] anaconda dump, when I selecte no-firewall
