Description Perry Myers 2011-03-25 03:49:35 UTC

Description of problem:
rhev-hypervisor-pxe subpackage used to be a wrapper around using livecd-iso-to-pxe script so that in %post install of this package the ISO would automatically be converted to vmlinuz and initrd files suitable for PXE boot.

However this relies on livecd-iso-to-pxe script being installed on system, which is only present if livecd-tools package is installed which is not presently shipped in RHEL.

So we need to remove this subpackage.  The to-pxe and to-disk (for USB installs) scripts are already bundled inside the RHEVH ISO image itself, so users can grab the scripts there.  But this is a little inconvenient since it involves users needing to loopback mount the ISO, grab the scripts and then run the commands.

So we should consider providing the livecd-iso-* scripts directly in the rhev-hypervisor RPM.  So that these do not conflict with livecd-tools filenames, we should rename these scripts to rhevh-iso-*

Comment 2 Mike Burns 2011-03-29 15:15:14 UTC

The inclusion of livecd-iso-to* scripts in the iso will be handled in bug 691832.

you mean in the rpm, scripts are already on the iso
