Description Valent Turkovic 2008-03-17 10:59:11 UTC 
Description of problem:
Hi,
our local LUG organized Fedora/Ubuntu install fest and I created for
that occasion respin of Fedora 8 Live CD with updated packages because
I didn't want to have 10 people go and try to get 200MB (or is it even
more) of updates all at once.

I recreated the Fedora 8 Live CD with this command:
livecd-creator -c livecd-fedora-8-desktop.ks -f F8Desktop -t /virtual/tmp

It boots and it installs to hard disk without problems, but after
first boot there is no "first boot wizard" that creates user so all
users get is an empty gdm screen to which then can it they know enter
root as a user.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Comment 2 Jeroen van Meeuwen 2008-03-17 14:14:48 UTC 
Changing component to smolt as judging from the traceback it is triggering an
ImportError by tryinig to import * from firstboot.config

Comment 4 Mike McGrath 2008-03-18 00:22:12 UTC 
This is because I foolishly updated the F9 smolt-firstboot in F8.  F9 and F8
firstboot don't play nice.  I"ll get this fixed tonight.
Comment 5 Fedora Update System 2008-03-18 13:34:56 UTC 
smolt-1.1.1.1-2.fc8 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 8
Comment 6 Valent Turkovic 2008-03-20 07:52:29 UTC 
I guess I was too fast, because I made a new F8 CD respin but
smolt-1.1.1.1-1.fc8 is still the latest version :(

I'll try again in a couple of days.
Comment 7 Mike McGrath 2008-03-20 13:45:25 UTC 
This is in testing waiting for someone to test, I'm in training all week and my
quick look at 1.1.1.1 on my laptop with an updated firstboot on F8 yielded no
problems.

If it gets the thumbs up from someone I'll push it to stable.  Otherwise it will
have to wait until monday or tuesday.

Just tried with smolt-1.1.1.1-2.fc8, but no success:

[root@localhost ~]#  firstboot 
no image found
  File "/usr/sbin/firstboot", line 101, in <module>
    firstbootWindow(fb)
  File "/usr/share/firstboot/firstbootWindow.py", line 150, in __init__
    self.loadModules()
  File "/usr/share/firstboot/firstbootWindow.py", line 426, in loadModules
    loaded = imputil.imp.load_module(module, found[0], found[1], found[2])
Comment 9 Valent Turkovic 2008-03-21 16:33:27 UTC 
I have F8 with:
firstboot - 1.4.39-1.fc8
smolt - 1.1.1.1-1.fc8

and I get this:

[root@localhost ~]# /usr/sbin/firstboot
firstboot cannot run, exiting
Comment 10 Fedora Update System 2008-03-21 22:04:44 UTC 
smolt-1.1.1.1-2.fc8 has been pushed to the Fedora 8 testing repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.

Make sure you rm -f /etc/sysconfig/firstboot

Also I believe this package will help:
