Can you attach /var/log/anaconda.log? Created attachment 142385 [details]
anaconda.log from text install
This is from a text based install I was doing to test for the software raid
issue.
Created attachment 142386 [details]
anaconda.log from graphical install
Now that I check the timestamps, I am not absolutly sure the previous log was
from a text based install. This one is from a graphical install for sure, since
I made a big oops and wrote over the wrong /dev/md5 array and I clearly
remember
doing that in a graphical install.
/boot is getting mounted onto /mnt/sysimage/boot first, and then / is getting mounted onto /mnt/sysimage later. So all the grub stuff is being written to /boot on the root device, not on the boot device. That leaves the boot device empty when you reboot. This will be fixed in the next build of anaconda. Thanks. I'll keep an eye out for the update, retest it when it shows up and report back. *** Bug 217416 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** The update still hasn't shown up yet (rawhide's anaconda is still from Nov 30). Is there someplace I can grab the source, so that I get feedback on the fix back to you a bit sooner? I tried using anonymous CVS as documented on http://fedora.redhat.com/About/Projects/anaconda-installer/ but the login command failed. Nevermind about my last comment. CVS works, I was just stupidly copying and pasting the 3 commands at once, so that the 3rd command was being sent as the password and causing the login to fail. Is there a reason the anaconda in the full rawhide tree has not been built since Nov 30? It would be nice to be able to install again but installing nightly builds is still blocked due to this. |
