On the same machin Ok - now I have a few more tests - it does not happen in text mode - it does not happen in gui mode if I'm looking at the VT - it does happen in gui mode if I am looking at X And according to the logs, it's does not appear to be an OOM -- the last reading shows 32MB free. Or it's such a sudden OOM that it never gets written to disk. Memory usage logs are captured doing (in the VT): tail -f /mnt/sysimage/root/install.log >> /mnt/sysimage/root/instmem.log & vmstat 1 >> /mnt/sysimage/root/instmem.log & so I have a log showing mem usage during each rpm installation. The memory usage is not specially high. Perhaps something else is happening during that rpm installation. Is there any command that I can pass to anaconda to write a more verbose log? cheers, m -- martin.langhoff@xxxxxxxxx martin@xxxxxxxxxx -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff _______________________________________________ Anaconda-devel-list mailing list Anaconda-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/anaconda-devel-list
