Description of problem:
A very repetitive error under various sets of options on my machine - but it 
looks like it is related to the size of swap file. I had it every time I tried 
to make swap partition 32Mb (equalt to the size of RAM). And when I chose 
autopartition (which made my swap partition over 150Mb), installation went 
through smoothly.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. I start installation from CD-ROM and follow on with all default options, 
such as graphical installer, English language, US keyboard, Generic 3 Button 
Mouse (PS/2), laptop system. 
2. Then I select Druid partitioner, and made two partitions - one swap 32 MB 
and the rest (over 3Gb) for the system.
3. Use GRUB Boot Loader (or LILO - with the same effect), install it on MBR, 
then continue with all default options, and enter personal information & 
passwords.
4. Select GNOME package
5. Confirm my video card type
6. Formatting filesystem went through seemingly OK
7. Transferring install image to hard drive went through seemingly OK
8. Setting up RPM transaction went through seemingly OK
9. Install started

course.
