The output was exactly the same, after quitting the installer, setting the OSCAR_VERBOSE environment variable, and re-starting the installer. I sent the error message to a friend who has experience with Itanium2 clusters, and he said that he had seen this before, that it was a missing RPM -- it's either an RPM that's missing, or a dependency that is missing, but that there is a bug in 4.2.1 that means it won't tell you what RPM the check found missing. That sort of makes sense, as I was wondering why this got printed: "ERROR: The following RPMs cannot be installed:" but that the line after it was blank. Is this something that has been seen or reported by others? I took the RHEL4 for ia64 rpmlist and edited that to make my list, but at this point, if this is truly what's wrong, I guess I'll have to go check each RPM in the list by hand to make sure it's present and that all its dependencies are met. That seems rather tedious... --Joe

That might give us some more information.
