From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i586; en-US; rv:0.9.9) Gecko/20020513 Description of problem: I just got a pxe boot setup with the psyche goodies, and set it up to use NFS and have ISO images on the server. All went well to start. I selected the "custom" configuration, since I wanted to do an "everything" install. When the package selection menu came up, only the documentation was listed. I thought that was very cool that it detected the presence of docs-8.0-i386.iso and allowed me to load what is there. I usually add these after the install completes. I didn't think it was so cool that these were the *ONLY* rpms that it asked about. And obviously anaconda crashed shortly thereafter. the files present in the directory are: MD5SUMS-boxset.i386 Psyche-re0910.rc2-i386-disc1-boxset.iso Psyche-re0910.rc2-i386-disc2-boxset.iso Psyche-re0910.rc2-i386-disc3-boxset.iso Psyche-re0910.rc2-i386-disc4-boxset.iso Psyche-re0910.rc2-i386-disc5-boxset.iso docs-8.0-i386.iso rescue-cd-8.0.iso Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): psyche How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. put docs cdrom next to disc[1-5] cdrom 2. install over nfs using these isos Additional info:
Hrmm... for now, "don't do that". I'll try to get something better for the next release
Implemented a workaround for this in CVS
