From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20030120 Description of problem: During the second phase of the install process, where the list of additional tasks is presented, got to the RHN registration and update process, connected to up2date, did the inital housekeeping (took ~ 25 wall clock minutes), then the display stopped updating and while there was a network exchange going on, no indications of progress. At some point the machine rebooted itself, went to the same stage, threw an error and generated an error file (/root/firstboot.1044875567.33) which I will attach to this bug report. It then completed the update process, albeit slowly (took ~ 10 hours and max speed observed was 7kB/S or roughly half channel capacity - 2B ISDN). After this completed the balance of the second install phase completed normally, i.e. offered the opportunity to install document CD Since then up2date has worked well and the system is completely updated Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Didn't try Additional info: Target machine is an older ABit BP6 MB with 2 533 MHz Celerons (not OC'd), with 768MB of PC133 RAM and a pair of ATA133 drives on a Promise PCI controller. A Samsung DVD ROM is master on first IDE Channel, a TDK CDR/RW is master on second IDE channel. Machine runs RHL 8.0 and 7.3 without a problem, as well as, Win2k and XP. These are not multiple boot installations, each boot drive is in a seperate drive tray. There is a separate drive that holds shared or persistent data between experimental installations. Install was done with the "noapic" pragma
