I just noticed that the genhdlist was different for 7.1 (IIRC, it was the same for 6.2 and 7.0). I got the new genhdlist, but then it said that it couldn't find the directory redhat-7.1/RedHat/RPMS. I figured out that I had to use genhdlist with the full path: ./genhdlist /mnt/rh71/redhat-7.1 instead of ./genhdlist ./redhat-7.1 It seems to be working now :) Forrest > -----Original Message----- > From: Taylor, ForrestX [mailto:forrestx.taylor@xxxxxxxxx] > Sent: Tuesday, May 29, 2001 10:57 AM > To: 'kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx' > Subject: Kickstart Redhat 7.1 anaconda error > > > I just tried to get Redhat 7.1 kickstart working, and I get > this error: > > > Traceback (innermost last): > File "/usr/bin/anaconda", line 520, in ? > intf.run(todo, test = test) > File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.1//usr/lib/anaconda/text.py", > line 1126, in run > rc = apply (step[1](), args) > File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.1//usr/lib/anaconda/text.py", line 551, in > __call__ > if todo.doInstall (): > File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.1//usr/lib/anaconda/todo.py", > line 1773, in > doInstall > self.method.mergeFullHeaders(self.hdList) > File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.1//usr/lib/anaconda/image.py", line 26, in > mergeFullHeaders > hdlist.mergeFullHeaders(self.tree + "/RedHat/base/hdlist2") > File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.1//usr/lib/anaconda/comps.py", > line 123, in > mergeFullHeaders > rpm.mergeHeaderListFromFD(self.hdlist, fd, 1000004) > rpm.error: match tag missing in new header > > Local variables in innermost frame: > self: <comps.HeaderListFromFile instance at 8272630> > file: /mnt/source/./RedHat/base/hdlist2 > fd: 16 > ... > > I thought it might have something to do with hdlist2.
