Problems installing Fedora core 4 with kickstart

[Katrina Gressett]

I believe the problem is with valgrind. I had a similiar issue 
trying to 
install that package from CD a few months after doing a basic install 
without a lot of stuff we decided we wanted later. Trying to install it 
from the FC3 would crash the machine. I left it out and installed 
everything else we wanted without problems.
Good Luck,
Katrina
