Hello,
Below is a log of an attempted installation while my system is up and
running RH7.3. The first time I run this it fails as shown below with
the error 28 (Selected item cannot fit into memory) and the next time I
run it there are no problems. Nothing changes in between runs. I have
attached straces of both the failing case and the good case. I am now
instrumenting grub code to differentiate which of the many places for
this error to originate but I am very curious to know if this is a known
bug that has been fixed in 0.93?
Thanks
Brett
