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.

Comment 3 Daniel Walsh 2014-09-02 23:24:32 UTC 
systemd-container should only be used within docker images, it should never be used on bare metal systems.
Comment 4 Colin Walters 2014-09-16 21:19:54 UTC 
I'm not aware of any installer changes necessary for this.  The main thing we need to prevent is anaconda somehow seeing systemd-container in the yum repositories used for regular installations.

I think it's in RHEL Extras, so as long as the installation target doesn't include that, Anaconda should be fine.
Comment 5 Colin Walters 2014-09-16 21:20:57 UTC 
Oh, but maybe this is about the opposite use case, where someone was hitting issues building a Docker container using ImageFactory (which uses Anaconda)?
Comment 7 Brian Lane 2014-09-18 18:43:46 UTC 
There's a bug in --dirinstall that needs to be fixed (I'll attach a patch). With that fix I've tested a minimal kickstart using fakesystemd or systemd-container, and as long as you don't include kickstart commands that trigger calls to systemctl a -anaconda --dirinstall --text --kickstart=... works fine.

Don't include firstboot or services and it will work fine. If there are specific problems, please add them to this bug and I'll take a look at them.
