anaconda's dump
Fixed. A variable was not being properly initialized in the case for editting pre-existing RAID fs. I'm going through Bugzilla closing some bugs that have been marked as Modified for some period of time. I believe that most of these issues have been fixed, so I'm resolving these bugs as Rawhide. If the bug you are seeing still exists, please reopen this report and mark it as Reopened. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; IRIX64 IP28; en-US; rv:1.3b) Gecko/20021228 Description of problem: Two software RAID devices were created, initialized (with persistant superblock) and mkfs.xfs'ed before the installation. The installer recognized the RAID devices and the XFS filesystem on it. When editing one device to be used for / and choosing ext3 as the new filesystem, anaconda failed. Then 50 MB of /dev/zero were written to the RAID devices. Anaconda said "foreign" to them but failed in the same manner when choosing ext3-FS. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. mkraid /dev/md0 (RAID1) and /dev/md1 (RAID0) 2. mkfs.xfs /dev/md0 3. start installer 4. edit /dev/md0 for / with ext3 5. anaconda crashes Expected Results: no crash Additional info: two EIDE disks (14 GB) were used for the RAID devices: # fdisk -l /dev/hd[ac] Disk /dev/hda: 16 heads, 63 sectors, 28005 cylinders Units = cylinders of 1008 * 512 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 * 1 102 51376+ 83 Linux /dev/hda2 103 610 256032 82 Linux swap /dev/hda3 611 1220 307440 fd Linux raid autodetect /dev/hda4 1221 28005 13499640 fd Linux raid autodetect Disk /dev/hdc: 16 heads, 63 sectors, 28005 cylinders Units = cylinders of 1008 * 512 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hdc1 * 1 102 51376+ 83 Linux /dev/hdc2 103 610 256032 82 Linux swap /dev/hdc3 611 1220 307440 fd Linux raid autodetect /dev/hdc4 1221 28005 13499640 fd Linux raid autodetect # cat /etc/raidtab raiddev /dev/md0 raid-level 1 persistent-superblock 1 chunk-size 32 nr-raid-disks 2 device /dev/hda3 raid-disk 0 device /dev/hdc3 raid-disk 1 raiddev /dev/md1 raid-level 0 persistent-superblock 1 chunk-size 32 nr-raid-disks 2 device /dev/hda4 raid-disk 0 device /dev/hdc4 raid-disk 1
