Description Alexander Todorov 2015-10-01 09:44:39 UTC 
Description of problem:


Below is verbatim copy of the serial console. Notice how when we reach the 80 characters limit the text is chopped off. Please don't do this in the middle of words as they're harder to read. This probably needs to go upstream first.


Starting installer, one moment...
anaconda 21.48.22.53-1 for RHEL Atomic Host 7 started.
 * installation log files are stored in /tmp during the installation
 * shell is available on TTY2
 * when reporting a bug add logs from /tmp as separate text/plain attachments

Rescue

The rescue environment will now attempt to find your Linux installation and moun
t it under the directory : /mnt/sysimage.  You can then make any changes require
d to your system.  Choose '1' to proceed with this step.
You can choose to mount your file systems read-only instead of read-write by cho
osing '2'.
If for some reason this process does not work choose '3' to skip directly to a s
hell.

 1) Continue

 2) Read-only mount

 3) Skip to shell

 4) Quit (Reboot)

Please make a selection from the above:  1

Rescue Mount

You don't have any Linux partitions. The system will reboot automatically when y
ou exit from the shell.
Please press <return> to get a shell. 
When finished, please exit from the shell and your system will reboot.

All TextWidgets should be word wrapped by default now.
