While installing RH6.2beta on a fresh system, I managed to partition the disks such that mkfs/mount failed. Rather than returning me to the disk editing screen and letting me correct the problem, the installer popped up the familiar python traceback window. It seems to me that the user should never, ever see a python traceback. A non-technical user is simply going to be baffled (and perhaps somewhat intimidated) by the error, and is unlikely to know how to recover. One might argue that this is a beta product, so of course the installer offers information of interest only to developers, but the 6.1 installer was (well, is) riddled with problems (to the point that it's easier to install 6.0 and then use rpm --freshen to upgrade) that result in the same situation.
We are constantly working to improve the user experience with the installer - thank you for your suggestions.
