Description James Laska 2010-10-13 12:48:42 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #642557 +++

Description of problem:
I initially saw this doing a full CD-based i386 install, selecting all packages. I was then able to replicate it with an i386 CD text install (requiring CDs 1 and 2), but not with an x86_64 CD text install (requiring only CD 1). The problem also does not show with an i386 DVD text install. The common thread seems to be whether more than one disc is used during install. I haven't tried a default x86_64 CD install yet.

When attempting to boot after the install, the messages

No root device found

Boot has failed, sleeping forever.

are displayed.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
F14 Final TC1

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Do a local (non-network) install requiring more than one CD.
2. Reboot afterwards.
  
Actual results:

No root device found

Boot has failed, sleeping forever.

Expected results:

Should boot normally.

Additional info:

At the end of install.log for an i386 DVD text install, I see the messages

Installing plymouth-scripts-0.8.4-0.20100823.4.fc14.i686
Installing plymouth-0.8.4-0.20100823.4.fc14.i686

Similar messages appear in x86_64. Could this be related?

no cryptsetup-luks .. hmm.. I might have to put it in the dracut requirements again.

This patch is needed for dracut:

Comment 3 Andre Robatino 2010-10-14 00:09:19 UTC

If I tell yum to remove cryptsetup-luks, it does NOT try to remove dracut as well. Am I understanding correctly?

dracut-006-3.fc14.noarch
cryptsetup-luks-1.1.3-1.fc14.x86_64

Comment 4 Jesse Keating 2010-10-14 00:17:48 UTC

What the patch does, I believe, is make dracut not fail if cryptsetup isn't available.  Previously it would try to do crypt anyway, if I'm reading the patch right.  It should still be possible to have dracut without cryptsetup.
