Well what actually happens is, if I select Install new system or upgrade
then I run into the already-known bug where the keyboard and mouse are
inoperative.
So I selected Install system with basic video driver and that worked
for a while and then said
X startup failed, falling back to text mode
So I guess that's why basic video and text mode seemed to be the same
thing.
Proceeding in text mode I selected to upgrade an existing system
(F11) That leads to
anaconda 13.28 exception report
Traceback (last used call first):
File "/usr/lib/anaconda/text.py"
line 597, in run
(file, classNames) =
stepToClasses [step]
File "/usr/bin/anaconda", line 1191,
in <module>
anaconda.intf.run (anaconda)
KeyError: 'cleardiskssel'
I selected debug
since I don't know what to say to the debugger I said quit
It said Install exited abnormally [1/1]
The system will be rebooted when you press Ctrl-C or Ctrl-Alt-Delete
and that is untrue for Ctrl-C, but does reboot on Ctrl-Alt-Delete
So I guess I might as well sit out RC1 and try again when the X problem
is fixed.
