I've retried again, and it still fails. I see that it's mounted /dev/sda2, which is where I've got the contents of a DVD, as
/mnt/isolinux.
Unless you specifically need the DVD contents, maybe try with the ISOs instead...
This doesn't vaguely answer my question.

From what I recall: you can
- boot the USB
- layout and format the disks (we assume using anaconda)
And when you get towards package selection, anaconda fails indicating ' that it can't find "image# 1".'
The "image# 1" it is looking for is the .iso which could have been burnt to a DVD for doing the install, i.e., not something from the images directory from THAT iso.
As RHEL6 anaconda derives from something post the rawhide that I submitted the following bug on, it may help you understand. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=435976
summary: anaconda will not trust any mounted file system for the rpm's to install, it only trusts media images and http.
So you're saying that the second partition has to actually hold a .iso, *not* the contents?
Augh!
Well, I'll delete the contents of the filesystem, and rsync the .iso, and try again. I *did* note, this last time (I thought I'd found something else), that the popup window said iso 9660....
Thanks!
