anaconda and system logs from crashed install
/tmp/anaconda.log, /tmp/syslog, /var/log/boot.log logs - last contain some detail about crash
Same result when trying install from Fedora-Workstation-netinst-i386-23.iso (477102080 Bytes, from 2015-Oct-30 00:51, anaconda-23.19.10-1). ks specified on kernel cmdline as: 'inst.ks=http://ws22/ks/23/cac32-ks.cfg', and kickstart file contain several %include statements in form: %include http://192.168.1.22/ks/23/_must-be_bez_mych %include http://192.168.1.22/ks/23/_must-be_server %include http://192.168.1.22/ks/23/_must-not-be %include http://192.168.1.22/ks/23/_mate ... Attached are '/tmp/anaconda.log', '/tmp/syslog', '/var/log/boot.log' logs, last contain some detail about crash: ...

Without '%include' statements kickstart install continue without problems. This bug is very annoying, as with new anaconda installer is possible to do customized installation only with kickstart file - and %include statement allows it's flexible adaptation; it is IMO very important. This problem is due to the switch to Python 3 and the various surprises that caused as far as string types. If you look at the boot messages that are displayed before anaconda starts, you'll notice something scroll by to the effect of 'bytes object has no such attribute read'. This is fixed in rawhide by https://github.com/rhinstaller/pykickstart/commit/04d6f243c0a36b0c3a208080cc5e05dadcc50c76, but unfortunately this update was not included in the Fedora 23 release. *** Bug 1280377 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
