I reported this error (sounds like similar install steps, and it's the same
error message) during the 7.1 betas and did not get a response. Never did
figure out the problem. Here's my report:
System:
Compaq Prolinea 575 (Pentium 75)
80MB RAM (Wow!)
500MB Hard Drive (I know, small..)
3COM 3C509B (ISA 10MB NIC)
Install:
network.img from Beta 3 CD/ISO
NFS to 7.1 Beta 2 machine next to it with Beta 3 ISO exported
Text install
Expert
Custom
Problem:
Just after choosing "Languages Available After Installation" (or something
close to that), I received:
Segmentation fault: seems like memory is missing as the install crashes
Work Around:
Used the graphical install over NFS, EXACTLY the same settings, works fine.

Subject: [Cooker] Thinkpad 765L installation problems 7.1
Hi folks,
Pls can you help me.
I want to install Mandrake 7.1 (official) on a 765L (IBM) Thinkpad but I
get no graphic window and if I do install it in
text mode then the install script crashed after select locals. The
select window locals has no scrollbar.
I did make following steps:
.
1.) boot: text
...loading
2.) select hdisk, where Mandrake is..
3.) select Language --> English (US) --> OK.
4.) select Install Class --> Expert --> OK.
5.) Install/Upgrade --> install --> OK
6.) Install Class --> Sever --> OK
7.) Try to find PCI devices --> Yes --> OK
8.) try to find PCMCIA cards --> NO --> OK
9.) scsi ---> NO --> OK.
10.) select mouse --> OK
11.) select Keyboard --> OK
12.) locals --> to big window for my thinkpad monitor. no scrollbar
available. After press OK the installation chrashed with following error
messages:
.
segmentation fault: seems like memory is missing as the install crashes.
.
regards,
Marco
