Description Didier 2008-09-30 19:07:50 UTC

Description of problem:

When installing F10-beta, the HD installation method does not find the downloaded iso.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
F10-beta


How reproducible:

Always


Steps to Reproduce:

1. boot from grub, with isolinux vmlinuz & initrd.img
2. select HD installation method
3. point to correct partition, containing the iso image
  

Actual results:

Installer message that the selected directory does not contain an installation image.


Expected results:

Installation continues.



Additional info:

Downloaded iso needs to be renamed to "install.img" ; this vital information is nowhere to be found.

No, it doesn't need to be renamed.  What you need to do is either:

(1) Grab the install.img from within the ISO image or from the download site, and place it into an images/ directory at the same level as your ISO images; or

(2) Boot from the boot.iso.

This is a change from F9, but it is described in the anaconda documentation at:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda/Options

(I've also just updated that documentation to change stage2.img -> install.img, which was a fairly recent change in anaconda).
