On booting from CD on of a burnt download of redhat 9 I get past the CD test 
(passes!) but as soon as anaconda starts to run it crashes either giving:

Exited abnormally: recieved signal 11

or

copy.deepcopy(self.videocards)
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'deepcopy'

Actual Results:  As above

Expected Results:  The system should have installed.

Additional info:

The system is a 800 mhz duron with an ATI all in wonder video card
Comment 1 Michael Fulbright 2003-06-16 15:29:01 UTC 
This appears to be the consequence of a read error from the CD. It is likely
that the CD managed to pass the CD test but is marginal enough that it failed
during the install.  I would recommend trying a different CD drive and/or CD
media to burn the CD.
