Description Kenny Tordeurs 2020-11-06 11:19:54 UTC

Description of problem:
Update the foreman-discovery-image with newer kernel to avoid issues like:
~~~
RHEL installations on some physical systems. Some machines have a new network card (HPE Synergy 480 blades with 4820c Converged Network Adapter) and it requires a kernel version equivalent of RHEL 7.7 or higher
~~~

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Satellite 6.8
foreman-discovery-image-3.6.7-1.iso

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. # yum install foreman-discovery-image
2. # mnt -o loop /usr/share/foreman-discovery-image/foreman-discovery-image-3.6.7-1.iso /mnt
3. # file /mnt/isolinux/vmlinuz0 

Actual results:
~~~
/mnt/isolinux/vmlinuz0: Linux kernel x86 boot executable bzImage, version 3.10.0-957.el7.x86_64 (mockbuild.eng.bos.redhat.c, RO-rootFS, swap_dev 0x6, Normal VGA
~~~

Kernel dates from:
~~~
2018-10-04 Bruno E. O. Meneguele <bmeneg> [3.10.0-957.el7]
~~~
https://access.redhat.com/downloads/content/kernel/3.10.0-957.el7/x86_64/fd431d51/package-changelog


Expected results:
Newer kernel

Comment 2 Lukas Zapletal 2020-11-06 12:19:23 UTC

Yes, I confirm we had chat about this. Please waive this into the next errata, we need to update FDI. For some reason, we built it against old RHEL version.

Comment 4 Lukas Zapletal 2021-02-09 11:22:32 UTC

Fixed in 3.7.2 in 6.9 drop, ready for QA.
