I think these are different bugs, I'm going to file mine separately. As reported in this bug, implies BIOS: device: /dev/sda1 self: non-existent biosboot Mine is UEFI and the failure was setting up mdadm member. device: /dev/sdb3 self: non-existent mdmember I believe that this is very closely related to bz#1118150 and may be a duplicate. In both cases, the eventual exception is raised because the path for the partition does not exist, and for no other reason. In both cases, the problem seems to have nothing to do with the ordering of the actions, so must have something to do with their content. This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 22 development cycle. Changing version to '22'. More information and reason for this action is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Program_Management/HouseKeeping/Fedora22 Fedora 22 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-07-19. Fedora 22 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
