Description Jan Stodola 2020-05-05 15:59:33 UTC

Description of problem:
If there is a "fake" raid device on the system, anaconda tries to install the dmraid package, which is not available in RHEL-8:

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html/considerations_in_adopting_rhel_8/file-systems-and-storage_considerations-in-adopting-rhel-8#the-dmraid-package-has-been-removed_file-systems-and-storage

The installation is interrupted, waiting for the user to ignore the package installation request.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL-8.2
anaconda-29.19.2.17-1.el8

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run installation on a system with "fake/bios" RAID

Actual results:
Interrupted installation

Expected results:
Installation completes without asking for ignoring non-existing packages.
