Are there any known issues with Kickstart on FC5?
I have a DVD-RW that I burned that passes media checking both on the source and target machines (I use the checkisomd5 command on the raw device, and then "linux mediacheck" again on the target machine).
Yet when I try to install from it, I sometimes get a message about "The package mgetty-... cannot be opened. This is due to a missing file or perhaps a corrupt package. yada yada"
Oddly, if I reboot and try again, it may fail on the same package, or it may fail on another.
Sometimes reburning the DVD fixes the issue. Some times it doesn't.
Seems to be a non-deterministic.
And if I click on "Retry" on the error dialog pop-up, I get an exception:
timer.stop()
in getRPMFilename() in image.py....
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'stop'
(noting also that getRPMFilename() has "None" as the 3rd parameter in the caller.
Does any of this sound familiar?
