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.

screenshot of dialog box in questions
Description of problem:
An pop-up dialog showing information on why a device selection during installation is invalid, display a "Quit" button. When the user click this, the installer reboots the machine.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Using the installer in rhel-server-7.2-x86_64-dvd.iso
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot from ISO and start installer
2. Select "Installation Destination"
3. Make changes so that anaconda display an message saying "There was a problem with your disk selection. Click here for details". I deselected on of the drives present.
4. Read dialoge, press Quit
Actual results:
When the user hits "Quit", the installer reboots the machine
Expected results:
When the user hits "Quit", the dialoge should not be present anymore and the user can make the changes he needs to complete his installation
Additional info:
I have added a picture of the dialog in question to better explain what I'm trying to show is wrong
Brian,
IMO, this is not the desired outcome(?). From a UX perspective I doubt the majority of users expects their installer to reboot the machine when they click "Quit" in a dialog box during the installation.
If that is the case, the button should really say "Reboot", not "Quit".
I hope you can review the bugzilla once more

Tore, this has been the behavior ever since 7.0 and Fedora 18. We have not seen any customer cases reported or issues reported upstream regarding the particular wording of this dialog, so I'm lead to believe that the majority of people do actually find this clear.
