Re: Anaconda dies after languages and keyboard selection

Ok, I'm still having trouble with Anaconda... but it's different
trouble, so hopefully that means that I've made some progress.  I'm
using Aurora 2.0 built on FC3, I have verified the media, and I have
used these same disks to install Aurora on other machines, so I do not
think it is a problem with the disks.  The machine in question is a
Sun Ultra 10.

Before, the installer would crash right after it started "Searching
for Linux Installations," which happens right after keyboard and
language selection.  I have been able to get past that point by
booting into rescue mode and formatting the harddrive using fdisk and
parted.  Now, I get all the way through the installation process...
package selection and everything (I chose "minimal" install)... but
when it starts the actual installation, I get an error with a long
trackback.  Because the system shuts down after this error, I can't
copy and paste it here... so here's the first couple of line copied by
hand:

File "/var/tmp/anaconda-10.1.0.2//usr/lib/anaconda/gui.py", line 1074,
in handleRenderCallback self.currentWindow.renderCallback()
File "/var/tmp/anaconda-10.1.0.2//usr/lib/anaconda/iw/progress_gui.py",
line 242, in renderCallback self.intf.icw.nextClicked()
...

I have tried installing normally and while using "ide=nodma."  I get
the same error either way.  Can anyone tell me the cause of this error
and/or how to fix it?

Thanks very much,
Stephen
