Description of problem:
Failed to write the boot loader - This is now 2 problems with the load. 1. because I manually created the network configuration, the root password would not work. Now because of another issue I cannot write the boot loader. Very poor QA. I now have an inoperable system.

Version-Release number of selected component:
anaconda-21.48.21-1
