Hmm, The only way this can happen is if the mkinitrd command has failed to create an initrd. But it hasn't according to you, as adding the initrd line manually fixes things, right? Can you please attach anaconda.log, storage.log and program.log from /var/log of the installed system ? Also what does the suitable initrd line you added look like ? Created attachment 358654 [details]
tarball of anaconda logfiles and grub.conf
Here are those log files in a tarball. I threw in anacond.*log and grub.conf, too, for good measure. The initrd line I added (the grub.conf in the tarball is the modified one) was just:
initrd /initrd-generic-2.6.31-0.162.rc6.git2.fc12.x86_64.img
I might have also changed the title to be more descriptive, but in the end, didn't make any other changes there.
Ah, so while you did use an F-12 *alpha* netinst.iso, you did not point the installer to an F-12 *alpha* repository, but instead to a rawhide repository (the alpha has kernel-2.6.31-0.125.rc5.git2.fc12, where as you have 2.6.31-0.162.rc6.git2.fc12) Yes rawhide has been switched over to use dracut, but anaconda does not take this into account while writing grub.conf. This is a known issue which I'm working on fixing, see bug 519185 . *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 519185 *** |
