Re-opening this - On looking at it again I see it's not a duplicate of Bug 623450, it's a duplicate of Bug 445734, but for RHEL 6 (Bug 445734 is for RHEL 5). However, Bug 445734 is currently in an uncertain state -- it's not clear we can even provide the requested procedure and have it work.. So when that bug gets resolved I'll resolve this one as well. Early boot works completely different on RHEL5 than on RHEL6. I have used the documented RHEL6 procedure multiple times to switch root and boot to a multipath device. Or are you asking how to setup multipathing during installation through anaconda? I thought that was already documented in the anaconda documentation. In my opinion, this is either an anaconda documentation bug, or a duplicate of 623450. At any rate, it has nothing to do with the RHEL 5 issues in 445734. Ok, I opened this bug myself as a clone of 445734, thinking that if there was a procedure we were adding to RHEL 5 I also needed to add it to RHEL 6. But if the issues of that bug do not apply to RHEL 6 (or are addressed in 623450) then it's not a bug. |
