[Aurora-sparc-user] Anaconda dies after languages and keyboard selection

[Stephen Ware]

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
