This is your first clue you are in trouble.
Repartition the drive --- force it to do that.
I zeroed the master boot record (dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda bs=512 count=1) and wrote a new empty partition table. fdisk gives me the warning
invalid flag 0x0000 of partition table 4 will be corrected by write
After writing two new linux partitions, the results are the same as before. Linux can't properly read the partition table and can't mount the filesystems, and the system doesn't boot after installation. With an empty partition table, anaconda exits.
Do you have any ideas?
