I've not tested boot+install from USB optical drives. Thanks for this
feedback! I'm not aware of a bug for this issue yet, can you record
this issue in bugzilla?
Please be sure to include your anaconda.log (and really '/tmp/*log*'
from the installing system when logging this issue). To get this
information, once you are presented with the dialog, press <ctrl><alt>F2
to change to tty2. On tty2, you should have a shell prompt to copy the
files to another system. If no shell is available, any screenshots of
the output ontty's 3-5 would be helpful.
Feel free to find me, or other testers, on #fedora-qa if you have any
questions.
Thanks,
James
