I obtained a 15-Final DVD from RC2 by using the deltaiso at rsync://download.fedora.redhat.com/fedora-stage/deltaisos/15-Final/From_15-Final.RC2/x86_64/ . Booted to try installation twice. DVD passed the media check. In the first trial the machine hung until I played with the keyboard, hitting CTRL, ALT, and/or down-arrow. For the second trial, I added the boot parameter "processor.max_cstate=1" . The hanging stopped, but the installation crashed again, as I expected.
This looks like an upgrade. Is that right? If so, do you have some /var/lib/rpm/__* files present? Or, is there anything else wrong with your RPM database that prevents us from reading it properly? If you try to do RPM operations on your existing system, do you get any errors?
I have since installed F15 release, and have not seen the problem since.

Got this bug again, after trying to preupgrade from F14 to F15 on another system.

Hm, how much memory do you have in the system in question?
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
