Can you please attach /tmp/syslog, /tmp/anaconda.log, and /tmp/storage.log to this bug report? Sorry if I sound stupid, how exactly do I get a prompt to copy these files? (In reply to comment #2) > Sorry if I sound stupid, how exactly do I get a prompt to copy these files? You can switch to tty2 where you will get a text console with a prompt by pressing ctrl + alt + F2. From there you can use for example scp to copy the files of the system. So on all the consoles I tried, f1 - f12, I have no prompt. f3 looks like the anaconda log and f4 looks like some system log, lots of kernel and net man messages. I can only type on f3 and f4, but it looks like they are just tailing the logs.

Ah, my bad, you are unable to mount install.img, so you never get to the point in the install process where there is a shell, sorry. Can you please boot F-13 in some other way, either into the installer to a point where you do have a shell, or an installed system. And then do: dmesg > dmesg for i in /sys/block/*; do echo $i >> log cat $i/capability >> log done And attach the resulting dmesg and log files here? Thanks. Well, I have a 256Mb flash drive, but it's not big enough to fit the netinstall on. So I'm kind of stuck to the muticard reader. Would having the sd and ms pro inserted into the card reader work? If I do this should I boot from the ms pro or the sd card, I'll have to use the sd card as the install source since the ms pro slot isn't visible. Let me know and I can try it out.

I hope you can boot into the installer and collect the required information this way, then we can hopefully resolve this. Regards, Hans Created attachment 414611 [details] requested logs So I booted from the ms pro card(sdb) and used the sd card(sde) as the install source. I booted to the point of normal install failure, bug 590391, and then jumped to another prompt and copied the files. Let me know if you need any else. Hi, Ok so your syslog shows that the kernel thinks there is no card present in the slot corresponding to /dev/sdb, so this clearly is a kernel issue. With that said I would still like to try and fix this as I've some experience in fixing issues with usb mass storage devices too. I have 3 theories: 1) The kernel never sees a card (or at least this card) as being present in slot sdb 2) A change event needs to be generated after the usb storage driver has loaded 3) Booting from the card does something to the reader (IOW the BIOS does something to the reader) which causes the kernel to not see the card So can you please try: a) To remove the card in sdb, and insert it again then wait a few seconds and do dmesg > dmesg and attach the resulting dmesg file here (either in the installer environment on tty2, or with an installed system b) Assuming you want to install F-13, install it using the 2 card workaround, then powerdown the machine boot it into F-13 with both cards present (so boot from the SSD) and then again do dmesg > dmesg and attach the resulting dmesg Thanks, Hans Closing this due to lack of response from the reporter. |
