<dcantrell> k1: for 606765, check the comps file for the addon repo you want to test and find a package that is unique to that repo, then identify it's group. during installation, enable that repo and then check to see that it appears in the group you read in the comps file LoadBalance define category "Load Balancing" and group "Load Balancing" containing packages ipvsadm and piranha. These items are not available in installer. We have determined the problem, but deem it not worth blocking beta 2 for. A standard installation will give users the base RHEL variant they choose. The redhat-release package will deliver yum repo configuration files for the addons. After installation, users can use yum with the --enablerepo option to install the addon they want. We will fix this issue in snapshot 7. Technical note added. If any revisions are required, please edit the "Technical Notes" field accordingly. All revisions will be proofread by the Engineering Content Services team. New Contents: In Beta 2 <replace with proper name>, installation of Add-Ons does not work in anaconda.

After selecting customize packages the UI showed all additional groups and packages associated with them. In particular the Load Balancing group was shown and I was able to select the piranha package. Installation completed successfully. The rhel-beta.repo file provides yum repositories to match the add-on repositories in anaconda. Moving to VERIFIED. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 is now available and should resolve the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of CURRENTRELEASE. You may reopen this bug report if the solution does not work for you. |
