what is your kickstart language selection ...?
(a code snippet from the 6.2 todo.py shows this situation occurs when the
lang-table is not found in any of the expected places:
class Language (SimpleConfigFile):
def __init__ (self):
self.info =
{}
if os.access("lang-table",
os.R_OK): f = open("lang-table",
"r") elif
os.access("/etc/lang-table", os.R_OK): f
= open("/etc/lang-table", "r")
else:
f = open("/usr/lib/anaconda/lang-table",
"r")
)
This is my kickstart configuration file. I used it for RedHat Linux 6.1. lang en_US network --bootproto=static --ip=10.10.10.117 --netmask=255.255.255.128 -- gateway=10.10.10.1 --nameserver=10.10.10.113 nfs --server 10.10.10.113 --dir /export/zoot keyboard us zerombr no clearpart --all part / --size 2000 part /export --size 6500 part swap --size 1 --grow install mouse msintellips/2 timezone ROK xconfig --server "SVGA" --monitor "Samsung SyncMaster 15GLe" rootpw --iscrypted 5uhWrmjV11UYU auth --useshadow --enablemd5 lilo --location mbr reboot %packages @ Everything %post mkdir /user cat <<EOF >>/etc/fstab node00:/user /user nfs defaults 0 0 EOF cat <<EOF >>/etc/hosts 129.254.188.100 node00 EOF hmmm ... using the above kickstart file (changing the necessary info such as server name & location, ip info, etc) with 6.2 works in our test lab ... can you reverify your download ...? please reopen if this is still a problem for you and/or you have other information on how to reproduce the problem ... thanks for your report! |
I found "RedHat/instimage/usr/lib/anaconda/lang-table" file does not exist. I can't find this bug on bugzilla. I ftped Redhat 6.2 zoot-i386 iso file from ftp.redhat.com about 1 month before.(I can't remember exactly when I was downloading it.) Screen dump Exception Occurred Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/bin/anaconda", line 341, in ? extraModules = extraModules) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/todo.py", line 290, in __init__ self.language = Language () File "/usr/lib/anaconda/todo.py", line 203, in __init__ f = open("/usr/lib/anaconda/lang-table", "r") IOError: [Errno 2] Mo such file or directory: '/usr/lib/anaconda/lang- table'
