Summary: "Repair Installed System" fails to load installer
Product: openSUSE 10.3
Version: Final
Platform: x86-64
OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3
Status: NEW
Severity: Major
Priority: P5 - None
Component: Installation
AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
ReportedBy: 1kfmm4x02@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
QAContact: jsrain@xxxxxxxxxx
Found By: ---


Using the installation DVD (64-bit) on my Compaq nx7400 laptop to run "Repair
Installed System" fails and brings up the character-based installer.

The failure occurs just after the graphical installer has started loading, that
is, after the kernel has been loaded and initialized. The system is switched
into graphical mode, the hour-glass cursor is briefly visible, and then the
character-based installer displays "An error occurred during the installation".
On one of the consoles I can see the following debug message:

"hal-setup-keyma[2245]: segfault at 0000000000 rip 00002b69dd76b2a3 rsp
00007fffcda1be98 error 4"

It should be noted that I don't get this failure when I run the normal
Installation option.
