Description Stephan Mueller 2019-08-06 07:45:57 CEST 
Description of problem:
After partitioning the installer spits out 'Can't call method "val" on an undefined value' and that's it. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Mageia 7.1 64bit

How reproducible:
100%

This is a machine with an Asus H170M-Plus mainboard and a Samsung 970 Pro m.2 SSD. Installation doesn't get past the partitioning/formatting.

     bug


 Attach report.bug that was written to the USB key, to this bug report.

Thanks!


[Changing version to Cauldron, because we cannot fix already released ISOs.
Putting "(MGA7.1)" on the whiteboard, to indicate this issue was last seen with a Mageia 7.1 ISO]

No response from Stephan, but we have another recent identical bug with more information, so closing this older one as a duplicate of the newer one.
