Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:06:54 EST
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.2) Gecko/20040301 Description of problem: Custom install CD was created. Process used: downloaded AS2.1 Update 3 CDs. Mounted iso files with "-o loop". Created empty directory, copied entire contents of each iso file to that directory. Disk 3 first, then Disk 2, then Disk 1. Removed SRPMS directory. Removed all unwanted RPMs from the RedHat/RPMS directory. Used mkisofs to create new bootable iso file: cd /var/www/html/as21custom mkisofs \ -A "R&B Red Hat Linux/2.1 i386" \ -V "R&B Red Hat Linux/2.1 i386" \ -J -R -v -T -o /rpms/custom_as21.iso \ -b isolinux/isolinux.bin \ -c isolinux/boot.cat \ -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table \ . CD boots fine, and I am able to do "linux ks=floppy" to use a ks.cfg kickstart file on a floppy. Install proceeds through all steps including partitioning & formatting filesystems without error. About 50% of requested packages install, including the kernel and kernel-smp packages. During the install of kernel-source, the error occurrs. Message of import seems to be: IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/mnt/source/.disc1-i386' I will attach the full saved dump once the bug is fully submitted. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-source-2.4.9-e.34.i386 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot custom install CD (see Description for how it is created) 2. execute "linux ks=floppy" 3. error occurrs during package install Actual Results: see Description Expected Results: should have gotten a good install Additional info:

Your CD is poorly formed. You need to have the .discn-arch files (and also, I'm guessing you need to rerun genhdlist so that it doesn't think that packages are on different cds). This isn't really supported, though.
