I already made a search on BUGZILLA that took me to bug#74719 but the solution you provided with update disk (80update.img) didn't work for my machine Description of problem: During install: file "/usr/bin/anaconda", line 639, in ? iutil.make DriveDeviceNodes() file "/usr/lib/anaconda/iutil.py", line420, in makeDriveDeviceNodes isys.makeDevInode(drive,"/dev/%s" % (drive,)) file "/usr/lib/anaconda/isys.py", line 255 in makeDevInode _isys.mkdevinode (name,fn) SystemError: (2,'No such file or directory') install exited abnormally ... you may safely reboot your system How reproducible:always when trying to install Actual results:unable to perform a new installation of RedHat Linux 8.0 Expected results:smooth installation Additional info: I already have a regular install of RED HAT 8.0 on my machine After I perform install I added a SCSI DVD device and a SCSI hard disk.

Oops, sorry -- forgot to commit the fix on the branch so when I spun a newer update disk, I lost the change. I've updated the file there so that it should now be correct.
I'm going through Bugzilla closing some bugs that have been marked as Modified for some period of time. I believe that most of these issues have been fixed, so I'm resolving these bugs as Rawhide. If the bug you are seeing still exists, please reopen this report and mark it as Reopened.
