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.

Comment 1 Ryan Barry 2016-06-22 14:01:37 UTC 
This appears to be another platform anaconda bug.

Can we re-assign to anaconda, please?
Comment 2 David Shea 2016-06-22 15:44:08 UTC 
Please attach the logs from the failure to this bug as individual, text/plain attachments.

Please also provide the steps you took to reproduce this issue. Is this a kickstart install or interactive? Did you hit done in the installation destination spoke, or did you use the automatic partitioning button in the custom partitioning spoke? Did you see the no space dialog? ("You don't have enough space available to install %(product)s, even if you used all of the free space available on the selected disks.")
Comment 3 Brian Lane 2016-06-23 00:01:06 UTC 
This sounds like bug 1340240. The error message should be more descriptive with anaconda-21.48.22.77
Comment 4 Fabian Deutsch 2016-09-15 12:37:41 UTC 
I sadly don't recall the details.

Chen, did you run into this bug and can provide the reproducer steps?

Sure.

Test version:
RHVH-4.0-20160822.8-RHVH-x86_64-dvd1.iso

Test steps:
1. Prepare a small disk(e.g. 5G)
2. Anaconda interactive install RHVH via ISO.
3. Enter disk selection page.
4. Select the small disk and automatically configure partitioning.(see attachment "5G-disk2").
5. Save.
6. Focus on "Installation Summary" page. (see attachment "5G-disk2").

Test result:
There was a disk selected, but the disk was to small, but anaconda report "No disk selected".

Update  "5G-disk2" - >  "5G-disk1".
Comment 9 David Lehman 2018-02-12 20:18:47 UTC 
Can someone attach the logs from the failure? I'm fairly certain this will not reproduce on a normal anaconda installation with a 5GiB disk.
Comment 10 Ryan Barry 2018-07-16 15:06:46 UTC 
It needs an installclass which requires more than 5GB to hit this, David
Comment 11 Sandro Bonazzola 2018-11-28 11:10:40 UTC 
This missed 7.2.z -> 7.6; can we have a target milestone for this? 7.6.z? 7.7?
Comment 12 Jiri Konecny 2018-11-29 08:55:08 UTC 
Anaconda is not doing Z streams but we will look on this one during 7.7 planning.
Comment 13 Jiri Konecny 2018-12-03 11:09:34 UTC 
Hello,

Could you please verify if this issue is still valid on RHEL 7.6?
Comment 14 Fabian Deutsch 2018-12-03 11:25:31 UTC 
Sorry, I can't. Can maybe the anaconda test team help?
Comment 15 Sandro Bonazzola 2018-12-10 15:40:31 UTC 
Ying can you check if this is still happening in latest RHV-H builds?

I will provide test result in here later.

It's acceptable from my point of view.

Based on c#18 and after talking with Sandro, I'm going to close this since this seems acceptable now. Please re-open if you feel the issue was not resolved.
