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 of problem:
I wrote the boot and dvd RHEL 7 public beta images to separate USB keys and booted off the boot.iso. Anaconda automatically detected the DVD image and was able to verify it successfully.
I then get the following error: "Failed to setup installation source; check the repo url."
Clicking "Done" brings me back to the main menu, but the installation storage never successfully gets configured.
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. dd the boot and dvd images to different USB keys
2. boot off of the boot.iso key
3. anaconda should automatically detect the dvd image and automatically default to it
4. Ensure that anaconda can verify the image
5. Observe the "Failed to setup installation source; check the repo url" error at the bottom of the screen

> Why didn't you just boot from the DVD USB?
For some reason this old dell workstation that I am installing to only boots off of a small 1G USB key that I have, and not my 30G SD card + USB card reader (which is the only device I could find that could fit the DVD image at the moment).
If you switch to a shell and look at /run/install/repo does it have the iso mounted? According to storage.log it mounted /dev/sdc there, but according to packaging.log it didn't like the repo /run/install/repo

Yes, the iso gets mounted to /run/install/repo
