Description Ron King 2005-09-06 14:07:21 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6

Description of problem:
RHEL3 uses the /mnt directory for mounting media.  RHEL4 uses /media.  The labs stated to use the /media for mounts, but the scripts check for /mnt.  Below you will find the excerpts from the two scripts.  I went in and copied the scripts to .old and then edited the "/mnt" to read "/media."  This was successful.

Excerpt from fsmngt_image.script:
cs.append(dev_is_mounted_cp("/dev/fd0", "/mnt/floppy", "ext2"))

#cs.append(rha.script.cmd_succeeds_cp("file floppy.img | grep filesystem "))
# do i dare?
cs.append(rha.script.cmd_succeeds_cp("mkdir /mnt/flarble; mount -o loop floppy.img /mnt/flarble; umount /mnt/flarble; rmdir /mnt/flarble", "root"))

Excerpt from fsmngt_floppy.script:
cs.append(dev_is_mounted_cp("/dev/fd0", "/mnt/floppy", "ext2"))
cs.append(dir_almost_same_cp("/etc/sysconfig", "/mnt/floppy/sysconfig"))
cl = [ ["head -1 df.floppy", "df | head -1"],
       ["cat df.floppy | wc -w", "df | wc -w"], ]

cs.append(rha.script.cmp_cmdlist_cp(cl))
cs.append(rha.script.cmd_succeeds_cp("grep /mnt/floppy df.floppy"))

Comment 2 Julian Old 2009-02-19 13:57:31 UTC 
The second of these exercises still fails in 5.0
Fix is replace all mnt with media in 
/usr/share/rha/server/scripts/rha030-5.0/fsmngt_image.script

Attached patch (for what it's worth)
