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:
Anaconda doesn't allow to begin installation after auto-partitioning because of "Error checking storage configuration". See steps to reproduce, please.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL-7.0 GA with anaconda-19.31.79-1.el7, python-blivet-0.18.34-1.el7
RHEL-7.1 compose with anaconda-19.31.104-1.el7, python-blivet-0.61.0.15-1.el7
How reproducible:
always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. start graphical installation
2. go to the Installation destination screen
3. select all disks
4. go to custom partitioning
5. remove all existing partitions
6. click "Done" (note there is a warning at the bottom of the screen)
7. click "Click here to create them automatically."
8. click "Done"
9. click "Accept Changes"
Actual results:
"Error checking storage configuration"
and detailed description is:
"You have not defined a root partition (/), which is required for installation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux to continue.
You have not created a bootable partition."
Expected results:
Able to continue with the installation.
At this point it is most useful to have the logs from the recent compose, not from 7.0, also if there is an anaconda-tb-* it will have everything we need in one file.
I am unable to reproduce this with 19.31.99-1
Brian,
the updates image fixes the "Error checking.." issue, but introduces a new one:
If you remove all partitions in custom partitioning (without creating new partitioning), you can't leave the spoke. Anaconda says to press the "Done" button twice, but it no longer works. Anaconda logs will be attached.
