I'm pretty sure this is fixed already - 2006-04-26 Chris Lumens <clumens> * isys/isys.py (inet_ntoa, inet_aton): Pass the right types to the socket module to make manual IP configuration work again. Anaconda was not built until the 1 May, so test anything post the 2 May tree. Else if you are familiar with using RHupdates I can talk you through that. changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version|FC5 |Other ------- Additional Comments From marksmit.com 2006-05-26 21:50 EDT ------- I was able to reach this point in the install process on the May15, May25 and May26 (today's) snapshots of rawhide. This recreates on those three. File: anaconda-11.1.0.21-1.src.rpm is today's. I am changing the version on the LTC Bugzilla from FC5 to "other" to reflect that this is found on Fedora-devel (rawhide). changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version|Other |devel ------- Additional Comments From marksmit.com 2006-06-05 23:38 EDT ------- I am changing the version to 'devel' to properly reflect that this recreates on rawhide. I verified that this still recreates on today's rawhide, June 5. ----- Additional Comments From marksmit.com 2006-08-29 06:25 EDT ------- Ed, I am unable to specify a static IP on FC6-test2. However the point of recreate is blocked earlier in the process, so I cannot test for this specific problem. The error message text now blocks earlier in the boot process, trying to config eth0 so I can start an NFS install. ┌────────┤ Network Error ├─────────┐ │ │ │ There was an error configuring │ │ your network interface. │ │ │ │ ┌───────┐ │ │ │ Retry │ │ │ └───────┘ │ │ │ │ │ └──────────────────────────────────┘ No combination of DHCP or on/off IPV6 allows me past this bug. I will download a rawhide and try on something newer that FC6-test2 (Aug3). ----- Additional Comments From marksmit.com 2006-08-29 06:42 EDT ------- Aug7 rawhide is also blocked by the same error. ----- Additional Comments From marksmit.com 2006-08-29 13:40 EDT ------- Aug29 snapshot of rawhide no longer has "error configuring your network" problem. But this bug is now blocked from recreation attempt by https://bugzilla.linux.ibm.com/show_bug.cgi?id=26734 > kernel BUG in shrink_dcache_for_umount_subtree which occurs prior to the failure point of this 23783. changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version|devel |FC6 ------- Additional Comments From marksmit.com 2006-09-15 15:11 EDT ------- Ed, this still recreates on Fedora Core - Test3. To get to a recreate, you must first ensure there are no reiserfs partitions visible (remove them in rescue mode or remove the disk resources from the lpar) in order to work around: RH204682 kernel BUG in shrink_dcache_for_umount_subtree Next to work around a new problem that keeps you from creating a static-ip interface - the one just after tftpboot that allows the start of nfs/ftp - is to 1.unselect dhcp but leave both ipv4 and ipv6 selected 2.type in info for ipv4 only and select next (it will error) 3.click 'back' and unselect ipv6 and click 'next' 4.type in info for ipv4. it will succeed this time. You can then proceed in the setup of installation. When it gets to specifying static/dhcp for each interface, it will offer the ip that you previously config'd static, with the static info already filled in. Just pick next, selecting it as is, and it will fail with a recreate of this problem. The previous workaround is still valid for this problem: unselect 'activate at boot' and it will accept the ip info. After install you can reverse the workaround and start it at boot time. changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mirror Request|urgent | #6141 External| | Severity| | Mirror Request|RAWHIDE | #6141 External| | Resolution| | ------- Additional Comments From marksmit.com 2006-09-15 15:18 EDT ------- (From update of mirror request (id=6141) Red Hat Bugzilla) Can we re-open this on the redhat.com side, please. My latest testing shows this recreates on FC6-test3. changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|ASSIGNED |FIXEDAWAITINGTEST Resolution| |FIX_BY_DISTRO ------- Additional Comments From marksmit.com 2006-10-10 22:08 EDT ------- By opening a new RH bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=209654 for a new problem, when the anaconda code was fixed on 10/6/2006 src code, then this bug was also fixed. changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|ACCEPTED |CLOSED ------- Additional Comments From marksmit.com 2006-10-10 22:10 EDT ------- tested on 10/10/2006 snapshot of rawhide. all fixed. vnc on ppc64 and lvm destroy and lvm create problems previously seen are also fixed. |
