Doc Text:
.Anaconda rebased to version 33.16 With this release, Anaconda has been rebased to version 33.16. This version provides the following notable enhancements over the previous version. * The Installation Program now displays static IPv6 addresses on multiple lines and no longer resizes the windows. * The Installation Program now displays supported NVDIMM device sector sizes. * Host name is now configured correctly on an installed system having IPv6 static configuration. * You can now use non-ASCII characters in disk encryption passphrase. * The Installation Program displays a proper recommendation to create a new file system on /boot, /tmp, and all /var and /usr mount points except /usr/local and /var/www. * The Installation Program now correctly checks the keyboard layout and does not change the status of the Keyboard Layout screen when the keyboard keys (ALT+SHIFT) are used to switch between different layouts and languages. * Rescue mode no longer fails on systems with existing RAID1 partitions. * Changing of the LUKS version of the container is now available in the `Manual Partitioning` screen. * The Installation Program successfully finishes the installation without the `btrfs-progs` package. * The Installation Program now uses the default LUKS2 version for an encrypted container. * The Installation Program no longer crashes when a Kickstart file places physical volumes (PVs) of a Logical volume group (VG) on an `ignoredisk` list. * Introduces a new mount path `/mnt/sysroot` for system root. This path is used to mount `/` of the target system. Usually, the physical root and the system root are the same, so `/mnt/sysroot` is attached to the same file system as `/mnt/sysimage`. The only exceptions are rpm-ostree systems, where the system root changes based on the deployment. Then, `/mnt/sysroot` is attached to a subdirectory of `/mnt/sysimage`. It is recommended to use `/mnt/sysroot` for chroot.

Description Samantha N. Bueno 2019-03-21 11:53:02 UTC
Rebase anaconda in 8.1 to pull in numerous bug fixes and align rhel08 with feature work we've been doing upstream toward modularizing anaconda.

Comment 5 Radek Vykydal 2020-05-25 15:25:14 UTC
Rhelification of the rebase: https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/2601

Comment 24 Jan Stodola 2020-09-15 09:50:06 UTC
Rebased anaconda (anaconda-33.16.3.*) is present in RHEL-8.3 composes.
The Doc text looks good.

I'm moving this bug to VERIFIED. Problems found during testing were reported as separate bugs.
