Description Orion Poplawski 2008-06-05 17:04:36 UTC 
Description of problem:

This shows up on my xen guest text mode (PXE, http) install screen:

error 2 reading header: cpio: Bad magic

Seems to not affect anything, but seems bad to have that appear.

How reproducible:
Every time
Comment 1 Chris Lumens 2008-06-16 13:17:17 UTC 
Can you attach /root/install.log to this bug report?  Hopefully there's
something in there indicating which package triggered this error message.
Comment 2 Orion Poplawski 2008-07-16 15:31:44 UTC 
Message appears while downloading stage2.img.  There's nothing in install.log
about that.  I'll attach anaconda.log and anaconda.syslog.

Is this still a problem with latest rawhide?
Comment 6 Orion Poplawski 2008-10-29 20:47:40 UTC 
I don't see this anymore.
