Hi,

we have a strange anaconda/grub problem which seems to be present
since about fc3 (and is still here in sl4.{0,1}).

After a kickstart installation, the box will not boot with a
grub "failed to load stage 2" error. If I boot from cd in
rescue mode and do a grub-install everythig is fine again.
It seems to be prety random but happens here about 20% of
the time. It happens on different hardware and if I start
anaconda agian on a failed box it will just work fine the
second time.

I could not find anything via google. Is anybody else seeing
this. I did not modify the installer apart from adding some
extra rpms.

Thanks,

Gerald
