Description Bill Scherer 2003-08-25 14:23:03 UTC
Description of problem:

At end of package installation (including kernel), up2date fails, dump the
following traceback to the console:

Traceback (innermost last):
  File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/gui.py", line 909, in doInstallation
    up2date.installBootLoader(kernelsToInstall)
  File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/up2date.py", line 608, in installBootLoader
    __install_grub(kernelList)
  File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/up2date.py", line 624, in __install_grub
    ret  = grubcfg.installNewImages(kernelList,test=0)
AttributeError: installNewImages


This is on RHASv2.1.  It leaves me having to update grub.conf manually.

Comment 1 Bill Scherer 2003-08-25 17:16:38 UTC
Correction: up2date *did* update grub.conf, so, no major issues here, just that
the up2date gui is left hanging (cancel does exit)...
