f14 updates to not overwrite passphrases with first/global passphrase
Place the attached updates.img file in os/images/ in your install directory to get it picked up and used automatically. We don't do official fixes for the installer for Fedora 14 after the initial release, but this updates image should fix the problem you have seen.
Let me know if this doesn't solve your problem.
If you've tried the updates.img and it didn't work, please attach /var/log/anaconda.log from the installed system (after the reboot). I put the file on the nfs server used by the kickstart. (os/images/updates.img) It didn't work out. I am wondering if I missed something, or if the file must go on the installation media, in which case how to get it there. I used pungi to generate the install cd. (sorry if I posted on the wrong place the first time) If you attach the log file I asked for in comment 4 I can help you figure out what went wrong with the updates image.

anaconda installation log
You probably should put the updates.img in images/ instead of os/images/. The images/ subdirectory should already exist. I put it on the nfs repository I set up. path is mirror/download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/14/Everything/i386/os/images and the source is set up on the kickstart as nfs --server=172.16.3.39 --dir=mirror/download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/14/Everything/i386/os On checking, it gets mounted at /mnt/source, so /mnt/source/images and /mnt/source/Packages and /mnt/source/repodata exist. I will try out putting images at the same level as os, and modifying the kickstart so it mounts i386 instead of os and see if it works. It sounds like you're doing it right. Maybe the permissions are preventing anaconda from finding the updates.img? 19:22:34,086 INFO loader: Looking for updates in /mnt/stage2/images/updates.img And then nothing, which indicates that it found nothing there. Strange. You can tell the updates image worked if /tmp/updates exists, has a pyanaconda/ directory, and is full of symlinks back into /usr/lib/python?.? From the logs, it looks like it looks for updates on /mnt/stage2/images, which is part of the cd-rom. It looks like it does not search the ntfs system on /mnt/source/images nor any other place. What I did now was put the updates on the web server that hosts the kickstart, and at install time edited the boot options to append updates=http://.../updates.img and it worked allright. So, how should my tree on the nfs system look like? As of right now, it only has : images packages repodata (GPG keys from fedora) GPL because from the previous log file it looks like anaconda looked for updates on /mnt/stage2/images only So my guess is the updates are used before the kickstart is loaded or before the source is mounted. (In reply to comment #12) > What I did now was put the updates on the web server that hosts the kickstart, > and at install time edited the boot options to append > updates=http://.../updates.img and it worked allright. This is the best approach. My apologies for not suggesting it initially. |
