From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 Firebird/0.7 Description of problem: In a Kickstarted installation, if 'vnc' is listed in the individual packages section of the kickstart file Anaconda will start the VNC server for installation instead of the X server. This occurs even when networking has not been configured. The VNC server is also started without a password. If 'vnc' is no longer a valid package an error should be given that the package does not exist. The boot line used to start the installation is "linux ks=cdrom:/ppp.ks.cfg" Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a kickstart file with 'vnc' listed in the invidual packages section 2. Boot the computer and start an installation using the kickstart file Actual Results: Anaconda starts the VNC server for installation, instead of the X server. Expected Results: Anaconda should have started the X server for installation, and then given an error that the package 'vnc' does not exist if that package has been removed. Additional info: This was not a problem with RHL 9.0 (Shrike).
