Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 10820
Installer broken - cant read /modules/modules-info (or similar)
Last modified: 2008-05-01 11:37:55 EDT
using kickstart you see this error msg on your screen. The strange thing is, that the module probing for the ethernet is succesful and also a ip-address using dhcp is assigned.
Do you get this error message when not performing a kickstart installation?
Nope. I'm using the bootnet-2000040.img, btw. The modules(3c59x) gets loaded (after the justprobe.o(?)) and a dhcp reply is also recieved. Also the nfs-image is mounted; then the installer quits using the "can't read ...." message and kills the whole thing. If you explicitly write "device ethernet 3c59x", it will go thru ... until the installer kills because of "--isencrypted - unknown option" (key >rootpw) (hello, an old bug again?) Then: anaconda backtrace (......): He has problems converting the "en" to the english-installation language...
the function failing is: todo.setlanguage.byabbreviation key: en
Sounds like the ks.cfg file itself is the culprit here. In the file, you should have "lang en_US" as opposed to "lang en" . . . the format of the line changed in Red Hat Linux 6.1. Please reopen this bug if you continue to have problems after making this change.
