Here's what comes out: [liveuser@localhost ~]$ liveinst ^C [liveuser@localhost ~]$ Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/anaconda-cleanup", line 88, in <module> devicetree.populate(cleanupOnly=True) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/storage/devicetree.py", line 1836, in populate self._populate(progressWindow) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/storage/devicetree.py", line 1873, in _populate self.topology = devicelibs.mpath.MultipathTopology(udev_get_block_devices()) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/storage/udev.py", line 87, in udev_get_block_devices stdout = "/dev/tty5", stderr="/dev/tty5") File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/iutil.py", line 144, in execWithRedirect proc.wait() File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 1270, in wait pid, sts = _eintr_retry_call(os.waitpid, self.pid, 0) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 478, in _eintr_retry_call return func(*args) KeyboardInterrupt ^C The process just sits there, I used CTRL+C to kill it, upon doing this I get above message. I want to install F16 on this machine, because no Fedora since F13 has run on it :( Regards, Antonio -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
