Description Ben McMonagle 2019-01-05 23:30:19 CET

Description of problem: when stage-1 is loading the kernel (graphic), the following text is displayed : lper program or other error.

I have captured an image of the text by interrupting the install (I removed the install media for the express reason to capture the image).

the complete text text is: 
wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on %s, missing codepage or helper
program, or other error


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible: every time


Steps to Reproduce:
1. start installation from either Optical or USB media on real hardware
2. When the "loading kernel" graphic is displayed, there is also some text : lper
program, or other error
3.

I see in the stage1.log that tries to read from cdrom before the USB device and fails
Can you try again using only the cd media and extract the stage1.log?
Can you detach internally the cd drive and retry using USB device only????

Attach to this bug both stage1.log

Thanks
