Description Jesse Keating 2006-08-04 17:21:59 UTC

When prompted to start the network in rescue mode, anaconda looks for
/usr/bin/ifconfig and it is missing.  THus network doesn't start and rescue mode
stalls out.

I am constantly amazed by the things we find in anaconda.

Comment 4 Jerry Amundson 2006-08-08 18:22:08 UTC

OT:

1. Where is ownership of bugs with Resolution "RAWHIDE"? To community members 
at-large, such as myself, if it's not fixed in the next-released-iso (Test 
3?), then it's still OPEN.

2. Relating somewhat to #1, the duplication, on my part, is due to the default 
Bugzilla search of NEW, ASSIGNED, REOPENED, MODIFIED.

The flawed logic there causes time lost by developers closing duplicates, 
*and* by testers opening them.

Comment 5 Chris Lumens 2006-08-08 21:07:13 UTC

CLOSED->RAWHIDE means we have committed a fix to anaconda CVS and that this fix
will be picked up in the next build of the package.  We won't have new images
made between test releases, so I can see how you might view the bug as still
open.  However since there is a committed fix that will be built, we view it as
closed.

If you think the bugzilla search is lacking or confusing, please file a bug
against the bugzilla component.

Comment 7 Alexandre Oliva 2006-08-14 19:58:19 UTC

Chris, the correct state in this case is to leave it open, or perhaps change it
to modified.  CLOSED->RAWHIDE should be reserved for when the fix is *already*
in rawhide.  Otherwise, you have to cope with dupes even from people who did the
homework and searched for open bugs.

- Look for ifconfig in the right place during rescue mode (#201372).
