Trying to install FC6-pre bombed out in the below ways.
- A GUI install was not possible with a matrox video card. The monitor
went out of range in a severe way.
02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Matrox Graphics, Inc. MGA G200 (rev 01)
- The text install package selection was out of sync with the group
selections. I got different packages to select when trying to customize
the package selection.
The install almost completed except it hung on installing inn. I don't
recall selecting inn, but it is very hard to distinguish what was
selected when the groups did not match the desired selection.
A bug report was filed during test3 for the GUI problem. The problem
still is there.
I was able to boot the system using my /boot partition on /dev/hda1 from
a working previous installation after the install to boot the new failed
install on /dev/hdb3. I could not login as root or change my root
password even in runlevel 1. I was able to add a new user and set the
new user password. The root account simply had an authentication error.
I had better results with FC6-pre than FC6T3 because I ended up getting
an exception error early in the install attempt.
I'll file a report for the anaconda failure. The menu selections out of
sync with package selection is probably already know,
