If the line is:
bootloader --location=mbr --driveorder=sda,sdb,sdc --append="rhgb quiet"
then, the bootloader install hangs and the last few lines of the log are:
19:38:21 CRITICAL: anaconda 11.4.0.82 exception report
Traceback (most recent call first):

However, if the bootloader line is:
bootloader --location=mbr --driveorder=sda --append="rhgb quiet"
then, it does NOT hang, but, instead comes up with "OK, Save, Debug" offer window and the last few log lines are quite different as in:
01:55:24 CRITICAL: anaconda 11.4.0.82 exception report

anaconda.intf.run(anaconda)
ValueError: list.index(x): x not in list
Also, rming the driveorder prat (which is how I did things with f8 and f7) results int the first (hang) type error.
Also, using the same image to do a CDROM interactive text install again results in the same hang error.
Maybe the f9 anaconda is suppose to behave with this sensitivty, but it seems strange.
Any help greatly appreciated in advance.
