From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.79 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.18-3 i586) Description of problem: after selecting packages the installer dies with an exception (see dump) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. take new compaq DL380 2. insert 2 9G SCSI drives and one 18G and one IDE CDROM 3. try to make install with root on raid partition more details in anaconda dump Additional info:

Found out more details: This happens when you assign some raid partitions (type 0xfd) with fdisk and then do not assign all of them in the installer. Those unassigned will not be formatted, and then the installer crashes when trying to start them up. The reason i did not assign all of them is: it does not seem possible to create a RAID 1 on top of a RAID 0 device.

Can you try using the update disk available at http://people.redhat.com/~katzj/73raid.img? If you put that on a separate floppy and boot with 'linux updates', inserting the disk when prompted, it should fix the problem. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 64734 ***
