Description Lee Howard 2002-06-18 01:05:30 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows 98; T312461)

Description of problem:
During anaconda, after the first img file is downloaded, the error occurs:

"The second stage of the install which you have selected does not match the 
boot disk which you are using.  This shouldn't happen, and I'm rebooting your 
system now."

This happens when using the bootnet.img from ftp.redhat.com or ftp.rutgers.edu 
and when using ftp.redhat.com or ftp.rutgers.edu as the FTP repository.

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. boot from bootnet.img on a disk
2. select FTP
3. wait for the error

Are you still seeing this problem?
Comment 2 Lee Howard 2002-06-20 01:51:41 UTC 
It now works fine when using the bootnet.img file from ftp.redhat.com and the 
ftp repository on ftp.redhat.com.  It fails, still, however, when using the 
repository on ftp.rutgers.edu.  My guess is that if you've made a change to the 
repository on ftp.redhat.com that it has not yet propagated to the mirrors.
Comment 3 Jeremy Katz 2002-06-21 21:09:04 UTC 
Yep, must be something out of sync on ftp.rutgers.
