I am looking for someone who can help me debug a problem with the RH
Kickstart process on RH 7.2

The problem is in the xconfig section dealing with the video card.

Is there a way I can run this portion of the install script from the
hardrive so I can debug the error??  There is no way to change the script on
the CD, so I need an alternate run method.


This is the screen information I get:

Running Anaconda - please wait ....
Probing for video card: Unable to probe
Probing for Monitor Type: Mitsubishi <snip>
Probing for Mouse Type: Generic-3 button mouse (ps/2)
Attempting to start framebuffer based X server

        File "/usr/lib/anaconda/videocard.py", Line 496, in

I have tried this with the generic SVGA option and still get the same
result.


Does anyone know the people involved in the kickstart and xconfigurator
development?   I would like to help get this fixed and am willing to assist
as needed.


Thanks for the help.
