Description of problem: 1. Boot using Live USB 2. On Start chose Try Fedora 3. Once logged in chose the Install to HDD option 4. Had not configured either Wired or Wireless till this point, so the installer prompted to configure them in Step 2 of the installer 5. Selected the wireless option, gave the wireless password as prompted and clicked on continue which caused the installer to crash The following was filed automatically by anaconda: anaconda 18.37.11 exception report Traceback (most recent call first): File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/simpleconfig.py", line 77, in read with open(filename) as f: File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/simpleconfig.py", line 187, in read SimpleConfigFile.read(self, self.path) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/network.py", line 311, in loadIfcfgFile IfcfgFile.read(self) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/ui/gui/spokes/network.py", line 1173, in getKSNetworkData device_cfg.loadIfcfgFile() File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/ui/gui/spokes/network.py", line 1106, in apply network_data = getKSNetworkData(dev) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/ui/gui/spokes/__init__.py", line 72, in _on_continue_clicked self.apply() File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/ui/gui/spokes/network.py", line 1148, in _on_continue_clicked StandaloneSpoke._on_continue_clicked(self, cb) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/ui/gui/spokes/__init__.py", line 77, in <lambda> self.window.connect("continue-clicked", lambda *args: self._on_continue_clicked(cb)) IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-Airtel' Additional info: cmdline: /usr/bin/python /sbin/anaconda --liveinst --method=livecd:///dev/mapper/live-osimg-min --lang en_US.UTF-8 cmdline_file: initrd=initrd0.img root=live:UUID=7825-C434 rootfstype=vfat ro rd.live.image quiet rhgb rd.luks=0 rd.md=0 rd.dm=0 BOOT_IMAGE=vmlinuz0 executable: /sbin/anaconda hashmarkername: anaconda kernel: 3.6.10-4.fc18.x86_64 other involved packages: package: anaconda-18.37.11-1.fc18.x86_64 packaging.log: product: Fedora release: Fedora release 18 (Spherical Cow) type: libreport version: 18

The crash was triggered by configuring wireless device in panel while being in installer network configuration screen. To workaround this you can: 1) either configure wireless using panel before starting the installation or anywhere except on the installer network configuration screen (recommended) 2) or configure wireless on installer network configuration screen which means selecting Wireless in the list, selecting NetworkName, clicking [Configure], entering password in [WiFi Security] tab and [Save]ing the configuration.

I was trying Fedora 18 x64 on an USB. I played with Wireshark (as root) for one hour, then I wanted to install Fedora on my HDD. I started the install (while being in the GUI), it asked me for a network connections necessary for updates, I specified the network...and here I got the error. Maybe playing with Wireshark modified some network files... Package: anaconda-18.37.11-1.fc18.x86_64 OS Release: Fedora release 18
On an older T510 box, I clicked on the Wi-Fi icon in the top right corner and configured wifi access. After that, I selected language in the graphic installer and on the next screen, I clicked on Wifi. Wifi is connected and on hitting Continue, this bug poped up.

We're well past anaconda 19.3 now and we've had no dupe reports from F19, so this looks fixed. Let's close it. (For those who hit this with F18: we're sorry, we can't fix installer bugs in older releases, but it ought to be fixed with F19 and later).
