Description Darshan Prajapati 2012-06-07 05:51:43 UTC
Description of problem:

I created live USB of Fedora 17(32 bit) DVD iso image using live usb creator tool. USB stick is of Transcend brand having capacity of 4 GB and fat32 file system. Now I booted from this USB stick to upgrade my Fedora 16(32 bit) to Fedora 17. I successfully reached to the step of selecting whether to install new bootloader or not. After selecting yes and its location, when I press Next, it crashes ans shows me dialog with Title "Unhandled exception has occurred. This is bug.". On this dialog there are three buttons named Debug, Save and Exit.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Fedora 17 (32 bit) stable

How reproducible:

My laptop is Dell Inspiron 17 R with Intel i5 2430 M processor, 6 GB RAM. Windows 7 Home premium, 64 bit is installed on the laptop.

Please attach the traceback file to this bug report.  Without it, we can't really do anything here.  Thanks.

I tried to save the trace file at the time of crash, but I was not able to do that. Even I tried to debug the same but Fedora was not able to connect to the internet so even that debug was not possible. But yes it happens every time so you can reproduce the same the way I described above. I have made fresh installation of Fedora 17 now so I can't reproduce the same.
