Description Hans de Goede 2008-09-22 11:49:58 UTC
When using a kickstart file for an iscsi install, if you put just an
iscsi --ipaddr=<foo>

Line in kickstart, anaconda won't pick up the iscsi volumes at ip-addr foo, because no initiator name is configured. But instead of complaining about this it continues silently until you try to use the iscsi disk and goes boom then.

It should ofcourse go boom as soon as it fails to successfully execute the iscsi command, or just choose a random initiator name as is done in interactive mode.

This is related to bug 461830, basicly we do not seem to throw an error if something goes wrong with iscsi ever, bad, very bad.

Re-assigning to myself.

Comment 2 Bug Zapper 2008-11-26 03:10:48 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 10 development cycle.
Changing version to '10'.

Comment 3 Hans de Goede 2009-02-13 08:04:01 UTC
This is fixed in anaconda-11.5.0.17, which is now in rawhide, closing.
