Description Michael Catanzaro 2013-12-20 04:29:05 UTC 
Description of problem: Bug #679486 has been fixed in all serious cases, but if you manually change the hostname of the live system, anaconda will still fail to start.


How reproducible: Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot F20 Live Desktop
2. Before selecting Install Now, change the system hostname in gnome-control-center -> Details
3. Select Install Now

Actual results: Nothing happens. Anaconda fails to launch; no error message is displayed.
Comment 1 David Shea 2014-01-02 14:39:05 UTC 
Pushed a fix for F21. For F20, either set the host name in anaconda or log out and back in after setting the hostname and before starting anaconda.
