Description Marek Havrila 2020-01-13 09:38:53 UTC
Description of problem:
Anaconda does not automatically recognize DVD as an installation source when running automated(kickstart) installation. While documentation (performing_an_advanced_rhel_installation - Chapter 5.1) claims:

"DVD: Burn the Binary DVD ISO image to a DVD. The installation program will automatically install the software packages from the DVD.",

anaconda sets CDN as an installation source and get stacked with incomplete "Connect to Red Hat" spoke. This can be mitigated by adding keyword "cdrom" into the kickstart file.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
anaconda 29.19.2.6-1.el8
RHEL-8.2.0-20191219.0 x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start kickstart installation of RHEL-8.2 providing dvd.iso as an installation source. Do not define installation source in kickstart file.

Actual results:
Anaconda needs user intervention to complete "Connect to Red Hat" spoke.

Expected results:
Automated installation run without user intervention.

Additional info:
Manual installation is not affected.
