Description of problem:
Here is a typewritten version of what it gave me on the screen (it would not 
save it to floppy):

Traceback (most recent call last):

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


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start the PC with the 8.0 installer CD in the drive
2. The installer start
3. Go through all the steps prior to the installer installing the product 
(i.e., Choose keyboard, language, mouse, time zone, automatic partitioning of 
drive, removal of all partitions, selecting customized (it does no matter what 
package I select) install), then after it checks for dependencies, it tells me 
it is ready to install. I click Next and the screen is replaced with the screen 
that tells you how many packages and megs are left to install. Before any of 
those fields fill and the installer starts, I get the error dialog that states 
the data mentioned above.

I did run the media check at the very beginning, and the cd checks out fine.

Actual Results:  I get the following error dialog:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "usr/lib/anaconda/gui.py",line 786, in handleRenderCallback 
	self.currentWindow.renderCallback()
File "usr/lib/anaconda/iw/progress_gui.py",line 149, in renderCallback
	self.intf.icw.nextClicked()
File "usr/lib/anaconda/gui.py",line 632, in nextClicked
	self.dispatch.gotoNext()
File "usr/lib/anaconda/dispatch.py",line 150, in gotoNext
	self.moveStep()
File "usr/lib/anaconda/dispatch.py",line 215, in moveStep
	rc = apply(func, self.bindArgs(args))
File "usr/lib/anaconda/packages.py",line 430, in turnOnFilesystems
	partitions.doMetaDeletes(diskset)
File "usr/lib/anaconda/partitions.py",line 1110, in doMetaDeletes
	lvm.vgactivate()
File "usr/lib/anaconda/lvm.py",line 54, in vgactivate
	searchPath = 1)
File "usr/lib/anaconda/iutil.py",line 66, in execWithRedirect
	childpid = os.fork()
OSError: [Errno 12] Cannot allocate memory

Expected Results:  The installer should have installed correctly. I have Red 
Hat 6.2 on CD. It installs fine. I am able to go into Gnome and work fine. I 
can run the update from the 8.0 CD. The installation appears to run fine, but 
when I try and startx, I get a corruption error.

Additional info:

Again, here are the results:
