Excluding RPMS?
by xxxxxx xxxxx 31 May '07

31 May '07

Hi all, I am currently using anaconda 11.2.0.63, And I've built a custom distro. Now, all works great except for one thing. The target system is a i586 system with no CDROM drive (no hookup possible), and the building system (workstation) is an i686. My distro has both i586/686/x86_64 RPMs, in case I want to install it on 686/64b systems. I use the following code in my kickstart: -kernel.i686 -kernel.x86_64 This way, the i586 kernel DOES get installed, the other 2 will not be. I tried this once with something else, and it worked. Why does it not work now, has anything changed? Thanks.

anaconda yum problem
by Pang Dawei 28 May '07

28 May '07

Hi, I custom anaconda task page to select all packages, use selectPackage("*"), at this time, if I use deselectGroup to remove all packages in special group, for example deselectGroup("kde"), the deselectGroup can not work. I found if deselectPackage one bye one, that is very slow, almost need 15-20 mins. Please help me for a good method for deselectGroup in this time. Thank you very much. -- --Pang Dawei

memory usage with latest Fedora install
by Orion Poplawski 23 May '07

23 May '07

I'm testing a text mode PXE/NFS install of the latest Fedora on an old PIII with 320MB RAM. So far the install as been running for over 14 hours. System is swapping and this is slowing things down. But looking at the memory usage, something strikes me as funny - it lists ~286MB as "cached". This seems very high to me. -- Orion Poplawski Technical Manager 303-415-9701 x222 NWRA/CoRA Division FAX: 303-415-9702 3380 Mitchell Lane orion(a)cora.nwra.com Boulder, CO 80301 http://www.cora.nwra.com MemTotal: 316420 kB MemFree: 3504 kB Buffers: 1472 kB Cached: 286380 kB SwapCached: 1356 kB Active: 136708 kB Inactive: 152536 kB HighTotal: 0 kB HighFree: 0 kB LowTotal: 316420 kB LowFree: 3504 kB SwapTotal: 655352 kB SwapFree: 411640 kB Dirty: 40 kB Writeback: 0 kB AnonPages: 1140 kB Mapped: 1044 kB Slab: 15564 kB SReclaimable: 2804 kB SUnreclaim: 12760 kB PageTables: 516 kB NFS_Unstable: 0 kB Bounce: 0 kB CommitLimit: 813560 kB Committed_AS: 256168 kB VmallocTotal: 704504 kB VmallocUsed: 5836 kB VmallocChunk: 698004 kB HugePages_Total: 0 HugePages_Free: 0 HugePages_Rsvd: 0 Hugepagesize: 4096 kB

Could not allocate partitions as primary -- forced to reboot
by Ray Van Dolson 16 May '07

16 May '07

Hello all, this is somewhat of an annoyance and I hope this is the correct mailing list on which to post regarding it. I will describe the most recent scenario in which this happened to me: I installed RHEL4 U5 x86_64 onto a blade within a PowerEdge 1955 via Kickstart. The system was brand new and contained Dell's utility partitions still. My kickstart config file's disk section looks like the following: autopart bootloader --location=mbr --append="rhgb quiet" The GUI installer uses my kickstart defaults and I was able to modify the layout the partitioning tool had given me to remove the Dell utility partitions and then to recreate the Linux filesystem layout. I did so without LVM. Ended up with partitions sda1, 2 and 3 for /boot, swap and / respectively. After a couple days we needed to reinstall this machine. I started up a kickstart install again using the same config file as above, but this time the GUI installer gave me the following when I got to the partitioning section at the beginning of installation: "Partitioning failed: Could not allocate partitions as primary partitions" The only option I was given was to reboot the system. I tried commenting out the "autopart" line in my kickstart config file, but met with the same results. The only way I could proceed was to either a) Not use kickstart at all (a manual installation let me partition by hand without error) b) Use fdisk to wipe out my partitions ahead of time. I feel like this situation should be handled better by anaconda -- there should be an option other than reboot as it would be trivial to clear the partitions out from within the partition editor. Yes, the obvious thing is to use clearpart --all, but in some cases I may not want to wipe out every partition. The installer should make its best effort to auto-partition with any free space available and present the user with the option to adjust if necessary. At the very least it does not seem necessary to force me to reboot. I have also run into this issue with existing Windows partitions on the system, etc. Is this a potential bug or am I misunderstanding something simple here? TIA, Ray

Changing MTU for pxeboot
by Olivier BONHOMME 15 May '07

15 May '07

Hello everybody, I am trying to install a Fedora Core 6 using pxeboot. The problem is that the server which contains the install images has a MTU set to 9000. Then when I try to download the install image on the system which I try to install, the transfer fails because I have a MTU 9000 on a side and a MTU 1500 on the other side. I saw on the Redhat bugzilla, that it was possible to send a new MTU parameter to /sbin/loader and anaconda using the command line. I tried to put mtu=9000 on my pxelinux.cfg file but it doesn't seem to work. Does somebody has this problem and does somebody know how to change the MTU parameter on /sbin/loader and anaconda in a automatically way ? Thank you for your answers Best Regards, Olivier BONHOMME

Anaconda send signal to running Dogtail testcase
by Alexander Todorov 10 May '07

10 May '07

Hello list, Do you think it is a good thing anaconda to inform a running dogtail testcase before it exists? We can send SIGUSR1 to the dogtail testcase and let it handle this. An example what this can be used for: write output to dogtail logs and use %post script in kickstart to save the logs on the installed machine. Some questions come in mind: 1) Do we have to wait for the running dogtail process to exit normally before continuing to %post step in anaconda? If we wait and the other process hangs up? The solution that I see here is send SIGUSR1 first, wait a while (how long) then send SIGKILL to avoid hanging up. 2) What is an exception in anaconda occurs? Say while handling partitioning. Does it execute %post if present or directly shuts down? 3) The best place to implement this? I think adding a new step in dispatch.py and handling exceptions is enough. What's your opinion? Any feedback is welcome. Greetings, Alexander.

Editing xml files
by EXT-Rodgers, Marianne 09 May '07

09 May '07

How in the Sam Hill to you edit xml files on CentOS? We are supposed to edit the comps xml, where I hear the @groups and their rpms are, but I can't read the comps.xml. I've seen some directions to update the comps.xml, but I want to edit my kickstart file and get it right. Where are the lists of rpms (like in a @group) that correspond to the rpm's in the @group? If they are in an xml file, I'm still lost. I also think that somewhere there is a list of Red Hat rpms that correspond to CentOS rpms. That would be great too. How in the Sam Hill do you write to a CD on CentOS? I've looked at http://www.linuxheadquarters.com/howto/basic/cdrecord.shtml, but I still can't write to a CD. I've done all the things advised. I can burn DVDs all day, but not a CD. I've been working on these questions for over a week, Google and all. I am trying to made a customized install using kickstart. I'm kind of tired of trying, trying, and trying and getting no where. Sorry for the attitude, I'm just a little frustrated. While I'm at it, is there a way to completely automate the installation, so you don't have to type in "linux ks=cdrom:somenameks.cfg" I did it once before. I wrote the command to the hard drive, used it, then deleted it. My development HD got destroyed. I had no way to back it up. I don't work on a network. I have to spend hard earned real dollars to get a USB, or better yet a firewire HD for backups. Haven't been able to do that yet. Any guidance, places to go, etc, will be greatly greatly appreciated!!!!! Thanks so much! ;) The comments & Opinions expressed are my own & do not represent the views of United Space Alliance

Hi, I have updated my distro with the latest anaconda, hoping to get rid of the annoying error: https://www.redhat.com/archives/anaconda-devel-list/2007-April/msg00060.html I was hoping the new release (11.2.0.57) would fix it, since noone replied to my post. Anyway, I added that, and updated some deps, (libdhcp, booty, pykickstart, etc), but probably missed one. I constantly get the following error: -- File "/usr/lib/anaconda/network.py", line 339, in lookupHostname self.gateway) --- etc etc it also mentions the following files: yuminstall.py, backend.py, dispatch.py, text.py ends with: -- TypeError: configNetDevice() takes exactly 2 arguments (4 given) Does anyone have any idea why I am getting this, and how I can fix it? Am I missing a dependency? Thanks.

Creation of Fedora CD install
by Joel Andres Granados 07 May '07

07 May '07

Hi List: Was poking at pungi to creat CD images and found out that it spits out a traceback that has something to do with a missing directory. On further investigation I found out that the error was located in the splittree.py file. The directory for the first CD is created but the necessary directories for the subsequent CD (2,3,4....) are not created. For my system the error was corrected with the addition of a line to the splittree.py file. Diff: --- splittree.py-11.2.0.55 2007-04-24 17:49:16.000000000 +0200 +++ splittree.py-11.2.0.55-JG 2007-04-24 17:52:52.000000000 +0200 @@ -228,6 +227,7 @@ pass else: + os.makedirs("%s-disc%d/%s" % (self.dist_dir, i, self.product_path)) self.linkFiles(self.dist_dir, "%s-disc%d" %(self.dist_dir, i), self.common_files) self.createDiscInfo(i) AFAIK this line was erased to take away the RPMS directory. But in erasing the whole line the "self.product_path" directory was also erased. I tested the change and everything seems in place. Regards.

[patch] loader.c parse dogtail=url parameter
by Alexander Todorov 04 May '07

04 May '07

Hello, This patch allows /sbin/loader to parse dogtail=url boot cmd line parameter and pass it as parameter to /usr/bin/anaconda in stage2.img. How can I test the new loader? I have modified the original images/boot.img and replaced the loader found in initrd.img. I am able to boot from CDROM with the modified image but a little after the beginning it fails with: Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(9,1) According to this site: http://www.informit.com/articles/article.asp?p=169466&seqNum=2&rl=1 the boot.iso image can be burned to CDROM and used to perform network installs. Any help is appreciated. Greetings, Alexander.

[patch] Several patches to process Dogtail testcases in Anaconda
by Alexander Todorov 02 May '07

02 May '07

What's in the tar.gz: * anaconda.process_and_launch_dogtail_script.diff The biggest patch of all. This adds a --dogtail option to the command line options for anaconda. Checks all possible conditions specifying a dogtail script: kickstart, boot cmd line, anaconda cmd line option. Downloads the script, fork and execute it before anaconda.intf.run(). * gui.py.always_load_a11y.diff Removed checking for dogtail. Always loads accessibility. How to properly check if dogtail is required? import gui happens prior to parsing kickstart data. I would like to have os.environ["GTK_MODULES"] = "gail:atk-bridge" outside gui.py. Can anybody help me to clean this up? * installdata.py.save_dogtail_kickstart.diff Added code that writes the dogtail option to the /root/anaconda-ks.cfg after install is complete. * scripts.upd-instroot.dogtail_files.diff Added code to extract the missing files into stage2.img. Works fine, already sent to anaconda-devel-list. These patches are against anaconda-11.1.2.36. * pykickstart.data.add_dogtail.diff * pykickstart.parser.add_dogtail_command.diff Added dogtail command support for kickstart. You can now add dogtail <url> in the ks file. These 2 are posted to Red Hat Bugzilla. Until they make it to upstream they have to be added to the scripts/upd-instroot pykickstart rpm version is 0.43-1.el5 Please review these patches. Greeting, Alexander

Error during buildinstall withselinux-policy-2.4.6-62.fc6

Hi all, After today's round of updates, when I run buildinstall, this is what's produced during the run. Creating SELinux policy... Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/genhomedircon", line 29, in ? import selinux ImportError: No module named selinux libsemanage.semanage_install_sandbox: genhomedircon returned error code 1. Is this a showstopper? I haven't yet tried to install the resulting image. -- Bill in Denver
