From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624 Description of problem: When installing via ftp, if the net installer cannot download the stage2 file, it will complain that the wrong file is unavailable. If you specify ftp.my.com /redhat9 it will complain that it can't access ftp://ftp.my.com//redhat9/RedHat/base/netstg2.img checking the output from a ethereal capture, it's actually requesting RETR /redhat/disc1/RedHat/base/netstg2.img I'm guessing that the error message is inherited from the old installers that expected all of the install CD's copied into one mamoth directory instead of split by ISO image. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 9 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Start installation without the files properly available on the FTP server 2. Put FTP files where the error message says it wants them. 3. Retry download 4. Compare error message with output from ethereal capture Actual Results: Message: cannot access ftp://ftp.my.com//redhat9/RedHat/base/netstg2.img Expected Results: Message: cannot access ftp://ftp.my.com//redhat9/disc1/RedHat/base/netstg2.img Additional info:
Fixed in CVS and the update disk is at http://people.redhat.com/~katzj/9-updates.img
