Hello.
I'm stumped.
Thats not a patch file.
Where in the file was /usr/bin/anaconda changed?
Why would /usr/bin/anaconda need to be changed if your kadischi is faiing
looking for chroot? To my knowledge, anaconda != chroot.

Could you elaborate a little further please?
Comment 3 Jasper O. Hartline 2005-11-03 02:06:59 UTC 
You might just get away scott free with this one, by first exporting a root-like
$PATH, since sudo does not inherit root's environment, chroot is not going to be
found. Just a suggestion, try that and see if it works.

e.g. [user@localhost]# export PATH=$PATH:
/usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin

The colons, seperate each directory path.
Comment 4 Jasper O. Hartline 2006-01-23 18:45:45 UTC 
Could the poster of comment #1 repost with a patch file included.
Surely we can get this stuff into CVS.
Comment 5 Luya Tshimbalanga 2006-05-29 16:58:52 UTC 
The patch is practically useless which the current kadischi status. I am closing
this bug report.
