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.

anaconda_entropy_1_count
Description of problem:
When you press random keys during the entropy generation in text install, the entropy decreases several times (see screenshot) and also goes over 100%
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
anaconda-21.48.22.56-1.el7.x86_64.rpm
How reproducible:
at all text installs
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install a RHEL 7 with anaconda-21.48.22.56-1 (I did it via kickstart file and PXE)
2. wait for anaconda to ask for the entropy
3. press random keys on the keyboard
Actual results:
percentage jumps up and down and gets over 100%
Expected results:
percentage should only go up and stop when reached 100%
Additional info:
This is perfectly normal. Depending on what's happening on the system the entropy pool may not increase linearly. It displays more than 100% because it has exceeded the minimal amount needed to setup luks encryption.
