From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows NT 5.0) Description of problem: During Installation, a message "uncaught exception" was displayed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install with my Creative 48Xmx CDrom reader Actual Results: Install process goes a little ways through and comes up with the same message. Changed CDRom reader and it installs fine. Expected Results: Message should not have been displayed (no message shown when installing with a different CDrom) Additional info: I had similar problems while trying to install Redhat 7.3 (file kjots). So I tried installing 8.0 (checked the CD's with the testing program available during install and all were ok). I repeated the install process 3 times and had the same thing happen each time. I will supply the file anacdump.txt and my CDrom reader (I don't want it anymore) if needed ( send email:richarmt)

An update disk for Red Hat Linux 8.0 is available at http://people.redhat.com/~katzj/8.0-cdread.img that should correct this problem. If you download this image and place it on a floppy disk (using dd or rawrite as with a boot disk), and then boot with 'linux updates' from the syslinux prompt, you will be prompted to provide this disk. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 75377 ***
