Hi there,

I encountered a dump message when installing ESX 3.5 Update 2 (build: 110268). Below is the detail info.

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/usr/lib/anaconda/gui.py", line 805, in nextClicked self.dispatch.gotoNext()

File "/usr/lib/anaconda/gui.py", line 159, in gotoNextself.moveStep()

File "/usr/lib/anaconda/fsset.py", line 60, in fileSystenTyoeGetDefault raise ValueError, "you have neither ext3 or ext2 support in your kernel!" Value Error: "you have neither ext3 or ext2 support in your kernel!"

Is there anyone can help me? Thanks!

Regards,

Eric

Sorry to revive such an old thread, but since I found it based on my search, i figured others would as well...

I'm having the same issue, and I've been fighting with formatting ever since. I'm on a dell 2900 with Perc 6i Controller, running RAID 5.

Help?
