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
