Description Adam Williamson 2016-08-30 17:45:00 UTC
anaconda-26.1-1.fc26 landed in today's Rawhide compose, 20160830.n.0 . So far it seems all openQA tests which UEFI boot an installer image for this compose are crashing on anaconda startup with a traceback ending in "AttributeError: 'EFIGRUB' object has no attribute 'boot_args'" . You can see the full traceback in the failed tests, e.g. https://openqa.stg.fedoraproject.org/tests/35097#step/_boot_to_anaconda/8 .

Proposing as an F26 Alpha blocker: violates "All release-blocking images must boot in their supported configurations" , a footnote states "Release-blocking images must boot from all system firmware types that are commonly found on the primary architectures. For the x86_64 architecture, UEFI with Secure Boot configured in accordance with Microsoft's Windows certification requirements is considered a 'commonly found' firmware type."

this is still happening; I think someone was working on this and even asked for my github ID, but I don't see any PR has been opened...

This should be the pull request:
https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/766

It has already been merged and it should be in yesterdays Anaconda build (26.2).
