The only difference being that if the installer can enable an Internet connection _automatically_, it will proceed with a HTTP install from a stale mirror instead of the desired packages on the DVD image: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/627789 With regard to further installation testing, the next thing I tried was NFS install. Installer found and downloaded images/install.img but then "failed unexpectedly [1/1]" before starting the graphical installation. Maybe it couldn't handle the DVD image? I extracted the image to build a full installation tree and verified that the place was NFS-mountable. Installer failed again at the same place. Next thing I tried was going back to the hard-disk install and then, where it fails with "Device or resource busy" and cannot setup the "Installation Repo", I set up that repo _manually_, pointing it at the installation tree on the NFS server. That worked! Though, it complained about the first package ("setup-..."), which was present and accessible from the shell in the mounted place, but only after clicking "Retry" three times, the installer accepted it and then continued with installing 1175 packages without any further complaints. -- NFS install is back somewhere on my todo list of things to re-examine occasionally. ;) -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
