Created attachment 492241 [details]
Attached traceback automatically from anaconda.

Comment 2 Steve Tyler 2011-04-14 22:24:39 UTC
This was in a VM:
$ qemu-kvm -m 592 -cdrom Fedora-15-Beta-x86_64-netinst.iso -hda ../f15-test1.img -boot menu=on

I had previously successfully completed a 32-bit install with the default, full-disk partitioning onto the same disk image:
$ qemu-kvm -m 560 -cdrom Fedora-15-Beta-i386-netinst.iso -hda ../f15-test1.img -boot menu=on

This seems to be reproducible. Restarting the VM and restarting the 64-bit install onto the same image fails with a python traceback while writing the partitions and logical volumes.

Comment 3 Chris Lumens 2011-04-15 02:13:47 UTC
You need more memory in the VM (for now):

22:08:26,049 ERR kernel:[   71.708412] Out of memory: Kill process 342 (anaconda) score 73 or sacrifice child
22:08:26,049 ERR kernel:[   71.708416] Killed process 935 (lvm) total-vm:79296kB, anon-rss:21704kB, file-rss:2040kB

I was testing low-memory behavior, so this is not a surprise.
Cross-reference:
Bug 696805 - installer does not report insufficient memory or swap

This bug is more akin to the still open
installer-does-not-handle-oom-gracefully bug:
Bug 629253 - anaconda: system freezes on installing selinux
