[Fedora-commons-users] Problem Installing Fedora 2.2.1 on Windows XP
Noakes, Caroline
Hi,
I’ve tried to install Fedora 2.2.1 on windows XP following the installation guide but I get the following error when performing the quick or custom install (the client installs without error).
at com.simontuffs.onejar.Boot.main(Boot.java:105)
ERROR: Unexpected error; installation aborted.
java.lang.NullPointerException
at fedora.utilities.install.FedoraHome.configureFedoraUsers(FedoraHome.java:148)
(The full output transcript is below if needed.)
Anyone know what’s happening?
Cheers,
Caroline
