Hello

It's not my first installation of Fedora (my first installation was redhat 
4.1), anyway.

I can't install Fedora 8 on my new laptop IBM T61.
I have tried different options before boot kernel, tried install from DVD 
or network (via ftp/http) and I always got this messges ( jest before 
anaconda tring copy RPM packages to  hard disk)


Traceback (most recent call first):
File "/usr/lib/anaconda/yuminstall.py", line 148, in callback
s = str(_("<b>Installing %s</b> (%s)\n") %(po, size_string(hdr['size'])))
