On one of the machines, I have a strange problem after the kernel uncompresses and the media check gets over, during starting anaconda there is a long pause and then it reports - anaconda execution failed: Input/Output error. After repeated attempts when I could get past that once - I got stuck in the disk partitioning step, as it did not detect the hard disk properly. The hard disk is Hitachi - HDS721616PLA380 ATA. Can someone help me out with it ? thanks nishith
