Hi again, Trying for the 4'th time gave me an oops, but the install seems to be successful. I got the oops at the exact time that anaconda said it was 100% done, then the oops. Anaconda then unmounted filesystems and said that I could safely reboot my system. The output was: ---------------- CUT ---------------- Oops: 0002 CPU: 0 EIP: 0060:[<c013cca3>] Not tainted EFALGS: 00010202 EIP is at(2.4.20-8BOOT) eax: 00000000 ebx: ca8000a0 ecx: 00000b15 edx: 000000e6 esi: 00000001 edi: cb85eae0 ebp: 00000000 esp: dfccde8c ds: 0068 es: 0068 ss: 0068 Process anaconda (pid: 19, stackpage=dfccd000) Stack: ca8000a0 c013d43f ca8000a0 0b150e4c ca8000a0 c013d758 ca8000a0 0b150e4c 00001ad6 c013d81a ca8000a0 c12c72e8 c6a45348 00000000 00000000 c012ad89 c12c72e8 00000000 00000001 c012addc c12c72e8 00000000 c12c72e8 c012ae9d Call Trace: [<c013d43f>] (0xdfccde90) [<c013d758>] (0xdfccdea0) [<c013d81a>] (0x0xdfccdeb0) [<c012ad89>] (0x0xdfccdec8) [<c012addc>] (0x0xdfccded8) [<c012ae9d>] (0x0xdfccdee8) [<c012aff9>] (0x0xdfccdf1c) [<c014e0a4>] (0x0xdfccdf34) [<c014e1a5>] (0x0xdfccdf4c) [<c0140759>] (0x0xdfccdf68) [<c01502e4>] (0x0xdfccdf84) [<c015033f>] (0x0xdfccdb4) [<c0108d73>] (0x0xdfccdc0) Code: 89 50 20 89 42 24 39 1c 8d 84 33 2d c0 74 22 c7 43 20 00 00 install exited abnormally -- recieved signal 11 ---------------- CUT ---------------- and then anaconda said that it was unmounting the disks and that I could reboot safely. Is this a memory problem?
