From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.0) Gecko/20020607 Description of problem: During installation, I was told to grab a hotdog and soda. It was stated that the installation would be kept going. But when I completted the hotdog and soda, I discovered that Anaconda had actually ejected the CD from my DVD-ROM drive and stopped progress of the installation until another CD was inserted. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1.Start Red hat GNU/Linux v7.3 install and choose to install all packages. 2.Wait for message stating to get a hot dog and soda from kitchen 3.Follow the message and get a hot dog and soda (bug more likely to be reproduced with a foot-long and 32 oz) Actual Results: The CD is ejected, progress bars do not progress and a demanding dialog box is displayed stating that the next CD is required. Expected Results: Promise of continuing the install should have been honored by providing a DVD-ROM or Anaconda should at least provide an ETA when the CD will be ejected. Additional info: I do not trust the hot dog, he has beady eyes.
There are at least two known workarounds available for this problem which you might want to try. http://www.zombo.com http://www.na.org
You don't trust the hot dog?? Then _eat_ the hot dog - don't just grab it. One other thing... where is the kitchen relative to the location of the computer upon which you were installing, how many doors were in between, and were they shut or open at the time?
