<4> post_create: setxatter failed

I have been happily running Fedora Core 2 for a year.

I just tried to install Fedora Core 4T3, but it fails with:
-------------------------------------
There was an error installing cracklib-dicts-2.8.2-1.  This can
indicate media failure, lack of disk space, and/or hardware problems. 
This is a fatal error and your install will be aborted.
-------------------------------------

If I switch over to F3, I see:
-------------------------------------
Setting file_context_path to /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/file_contexts
-------------------------------------

F4 shows:
-------------------------------------
  <6>SELinux: initialized (dev hda3, type xfs), uses xattr
  <4>post_create: setxatter failed, rc=1 (dev=hda7 ino=16449)
-------------------------------------

My partion layout is:

hda1: /boot (ext3)
hda2: swap
hda3: /home (xfs)
hda4: extended
  hda5: / (Fedora core 2) (ext3)
  hda6: / (alternate root) (jfs)
  hda7: / (Fedora core 4T3) (jfs)

I booted off the DVD with "linux jfs", so it would allow me to format
the root partion with jfs.
I told it not to install SELinux.

I did test the media, and it is fine.  Pretty sure my hardware is
okay, since Fedora Core 2 is quite happy running on it.

Any other information I can provide to help track this problem down?

Thanks,

John
