Description of problem:
On two identical machines (HP DL145), using 3 different mirrors
(download.fedora.redhat.com, mirrors.kernel.org and mirror.ac.uk), the
Anaconda installer fails after formatting the partitions.

Traceback is as follows:

We've had no problems installing FC2 x86_64 on identical hardware
prior to today.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Begin a network install via HTTP for FC2 x86_64
2. Select a minimal 'Custom' installation
3. Installer crashes after failed RPM installation, and attempts to
enter post-install prematurely.
    

Actual Results:  Anaconda crashes, offering to reboot or debug.

Expected Results:  The install should have completed normally.

Additional info:
Comment 1 Michael Styne 2004-10-07 22:48:23 UTC 
Sort of tangential, but the FC1 x86_64 netinstaller works fine on the
same hardware.
