The 'repositories require networking' message appears even if you choose to do a clean install rather than an upgrade. Surely the Fedora 11 DVD is capable of installing a Fedora system without needing to use the network? Does this behavior occur with the rawhide iso images? Additionally, did you run media check? Are there read errors when attempting to use the repo on the DVD? You can check by examining /tmp/syslog or looking at tty5. I have ran into this, have a look at the fix used here: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=225742 Where can I grab a iso image(s) of rawhide? Thought that was http only, until a release candidate is released? I'll have to pungi up a dvd to test the current rawhide... just to save time..
diff /usr/lib/anaconda/storage/devicetree.py

diff from anaconda-11.5.0.59-1.fc11.i586
handleUdevDeviceFormat is the function, it has not changed in rawhide.
I did run media check and it passed. I did not test Rawhide, this bug is against the final Fedora 11 release. I didn't notice any I/O errors in the log printed on the various virtual consoles including tty5. If the problem is, in fact, that the CD-ROM format is not getting detected correctly, we need to solve that root cause. Ed - can you please attach /tmp/storage.log and /tmp/anaconda.log to this bug report? Thanks for checking the media as well. *** Bug 520098 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** The attached bug 520998 has plenty of output in its storage.log to show what the underlying problem is, though I do not yet know how to solve it. Can someone being affected by this bug switch to tty2 and attach the output of: udevadm test --action=add /class/block/sr0 Chris, with F11: When I go to capture the output using > the file is blank... Got an idea on how to grab that info?? What I do see is a error at line 47 in /lib/udev/rule_generator.functions not being able to find "sleep" Joel, with Rawhide(12.16). the above problem doesn't appear, and getFormat returns iso9660. Sorry, I don't have copies of the storage.log or anaconda.log files, and since the machine has already been reinstalled and is in use, I can't redo the process to generate them. (It would be better if the Anaconda bug reporter tool attached these files when it sends the backtrace.) Chris I think this is dup of 505639, sleep not on the initrd. Agreed. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 505639 *** |
