RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Petr Bokoc 2013-12-10 16:27:07 UTC

The Kickstart Configurator (system-config-kickstart) tool is very out of date in RHEL7 Beta - it seems it was barely touched and still contains choices from RHEL 6. Find out what's going on with it and if it's getting an update for RHEL 7, provide the corresponding documentation (rewrite the Kickstart Configurator chapter).

Comment 2 Petr Bokoc 2014-03-24 14:49:12 UTC

Apparently s-c-k is deprecated in RHEL7; it's still available, but it hasn't been updated for RHEL7 and there are no plans to do so.

The dedicated chapter for the tool will be removed, and we'll add an admonition into the Kickstart Installations chapter mentioning that the tool is deprecated and that the preferred method for generating Kickstart files is to do a manual install first and using the /root/anaconda.ks file from the installed system with any edits made using a text editor.
