Description Jirka Daněk 2011-04-24 18:06:27 UTC
Description of problem:
When I run anaconda from command line as root, it abruptly quits after I fill in root password and click next.

The same thing happens when I run liveinst as root.

When I click the icon in Applications menu, the qutting behavior does not change.

When I run anaconda as normal user, see bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=699259

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

[root@private liveuser]# anaconda --version
anaconda 15.28

Additional info:
[root@private liveuser]# LC_ALL=C anaconda

anaconda isn't meant to be run directly from the command line.
