Install fc18 from DVD demands network connection

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This is back, <sigh> again. Having found out that fedup fails totally to work on drives with encrypted partitions, I tried to install from DVD. The DVD is good, the system is good, I booted in recovery but the partitions were not recognized as anything at all, so I rebooted to do full install from DVD. That's not happening, the DVD demands to do a network install. Why does this happen and how can I get by it? There is nothing to configure and [QUIT] works as expected.

NOTE: no, it's not practical to transport the system to a useful net, or do a network install over dialup. Install from DVD normally just works, what's triggering this issue? I realize that fedup isn't going to get fixed, I filed this as a bug against earlier releases, without getting a fix or workaround.
