Description of problem: Install fails with Python trace-back. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Install has not succeeded for me yet on this system, HP Pavilion 6355US. I did use this disk set to successfully install under VMWare Workstation. Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Python error. Expected results: Successful install. Additional info:
There is insufficient information here to guess what the problem is. Have you mediachecked the installation media using the 'mediacheck' option?
I have not, but this is a set of offical RedHat disks I purchased, not ones I burned myself. I thought I'd attached the anaconda trace file but I don't see it up there. I'll get it attached later today.

It's still installing, but I'd say you were pretty close when you asked if I'd mediacheck-ed the disks. The disks are fine, but it looks like my CD-ROM drive was bad; I "borrowed" one from another system and it's charging along great. This is actually a second system I'm installing on now; I had thought there was some problem with the old HP Pavilion I had - they are kind of quirky - and got a new bare-bones system to which I (sigh) moved all of the Pavilion's drives. If you guys can figure out a way to test the reliability of a CD drive, that might be a nice option to add....
