Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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.

Please provide steps to reproduce this.
Comment 14 Michal Privoznik 2014-02-04 10:30:13 UTC 
(In reply to Samantha N. Bueno from comment #13)
> Please provide steps to reproduce this.

1. Create a new VM under virt-manager: Select PXE install, Chose RHEL-7 as guest OS, leave default RAM (1024MB) and CPU (1), Create a disk image on the computer's HDD, and customize configuration before install (make sure to create macvtap device over eth0)

2. Choose Latest RHEL and Fedora in globalsync, and then select RHEL-7.0-20140130-Server

3. In anaconda, add time.englab.brq.redhat.com to NTP server pool, set Europe/Prague TZ, Choose custom partitioning and make just one partition / for everything (no LVM, no separate partitions for /boot or something, no swap either). Select 'Minimal install'. and start instalation.

4. Enter root password and create a user.

5. After the installation is finisher, click the 'configure' button in the right lower corner.

6. Observe error.
Comment 15 Chris Lumens 2014-02-04 19:14:08 UTC 
anaconda is getting OOM killed:

12:50:26,113 ERR kernel:[ 5494.154327] Out of memory: Kill process 1199 (anaconda) score 100 or sacrifice child
12:50:26,113 ERR kernel:[ 5494.154335] Killed process 1552 (anaconda-yum) total-vm:299044kB, anon-rss:59092kB, file-rss:1300kB

Also note in your syslog that polkitd is taking up 129 MB of memory.  That seems excessive.  For now you should be able to work around it by adding more memory to your VM.
Comment 16 Dave Cantrell 2014-07-18 19:14:45 UTC 
Nothing here seems to be an anaconda issue that can be resolved.  We are unable to reliably reproduce this problem and have not had it come up since winter.  NAK'ing for now and setting as CANTFIX since it's not really clear what the problem is (if there is a problem).
