Thanks Ed - I am really puzzled - is there any way that installing in a VM is possibly different to a bare metal install? I mean if the VM set up bridging to the host machine's network then it presumably thinks there is a network available even if it does not want to use it? Maybe if I set up a static ip address and let it continue perhaps the rest of the install would go ahead once a (pretend) network was defined - I didn't try that... However there do seem to be related bugzilla reports: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=677773 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=689018 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=673824 Maybe I am hitting a version of one of these? -- mike c -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
