Description John Reiser 2011-01-22 22:41:20 UTC
Created attachment 474765 [details]
anaconda traceback and debug info

Description of problem: Installer error and traceback upon [Next] from bootloader dialog page when askmethod, Local harddrive, USB VFAT produced by livecd-iso-to-disk.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
anaconda-15.16

How reproducible: every time


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Compose install DVD from today's rawhide using pungi.
2. Make LiveUSB installer using https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_and_use_Live_USB#How_to_Make_a_bootable_USB_Drive_to_Install_Fedora_instead_of_using_a_physical_DVD.  Patch livecd-iso-to-disk for bug #671900 (initrd.img supersedes install.img)
3. Boot DVD for Install with additional kernel parameter " askmethod".  (Booting LiveUSB fails due to only a partial fix for bug #671900.)
4. Choose Local harddrive method, select the LiveUSB partition, leave Directory field empty.
5. Basic disks, Custom partitioning, select existing partition for /, reformat as ext4.
  
Actual results: "ValueError: isys.umount() can only umount by mount point"
upon [Next] from bootloader dialog page.


Expected results: no error.

Comment 3 James Laska 2011-02-08 20:24:50 UTC
Adding for review during F15Alpha meeting.  I don't believe any "custom" partitioning scenarios can be considered for the Alpha criteria [1].  But I'd appreciate any additional input on the scope of this failure.

Comment 4 He Rui 2011-02-11 10:54:50 UTC
*** Bug 676803 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Comment 5 He Rui 2011-02-11 11:02:56 UTC
It's also triggered when testing F15-alpha-tc1 using repo=nfsiso:<server>:<path>.

Comment 6 Chris Lumens 2011-02-11 14:40:41 UTC
Yeah, that should be fixed in the latest build (listed in the Fixed In Version) field too.  I believe the TC1 one uses an earlier build, though.

Comment 7 James Laska 2011-02-11 15:02:59 UTC
Until TC#2 is available, an updates.img for use with TC#1 may help (see http://jlaska.fedorapeople.org/updates/f15-alpha-tc1.img)

Comment 8 Robyn Bergeron 2011-02-11 19:16:15 UTC
AGREED: 671922 - Likely impacts Beta release criteria. Already fixed in anaconda-15.20, available in TC#2 for testing.

Comment 9 James Laska 2011-02-17 21:04:41 UTC
I'm no longer seeing this particular issue in TC2.  However, a new issue has surfaced and will be tracked as bug#678414

Comment 10 Adam Williamson 2011-02-25 18:33:06 UTC
fix confirmed in a stable anaconda release.
