Hi Adam,

this happens some seconds after I activated the spoke "select 
installation source". Because nothing happened, I selected anaconda 
console 4 (or 3, I don't remeber), and there I see: "Pane is dead".
So going to anaconda console 1, there I saw the message:
"if the graphical installation interface fails to start, try again with 
the inst.text bootoption to start text installation" . Pls. see attachments.

Using this advice was very helpful (see my previous email).

Kind regards
