Thie appears to be a duplicate of bz#1269195 That bug is ON_QA, and we cherry-picked the commit associated with that bug-url back into the Anaconda build, but looking at the patch, I'm not sure how this resolves. Vojtech, is https://github.com/evol262/anaconda/commit/baffbc3544f6a355f4ff2b3553cb9431800ff74a the right patch?
Chen, were you trying to install on an iSCSI LUN?
(In reply to Ryan Barry from comment #3) > Chen, were you trying to install on an iSCSI LUN? Yes, the issue just occurs on an iSCSI LUN.(The machine has more than 20 iSCSI luns)
From anaconda.log: "11:22:45,826 ERR anaconda: BootLoader setup failed: failed to find a suitable stage1 device" The problem here is we start installation without having a stage1 device. The patch Ryan Barry mentioned just makes sure Anaconda doesn't start installation in such cases -- it will just show the error and let the user manually fix the configuration.
Chen, just verifying: Is this machine using an HBA? Vojtech, isn't a LUN which is connected through an HBA a suitable stage1 device? Or what is the way to install RHEL on a system with only LUNs connected thorugh an HBA?
We have allowed installing bootloader to offload iSCSI devices in bug #1325134 [1] which I believe should apply also to the case from description.

Thanks. Because two packages, anaconda and blivet, are required to fix this, this probably needs to wait until 7.3.
Can you please test this on the 7.3 distill?

Hi, when install RHEV-H-7.2-20161007.0-RHVH-x86_64-dvd1.iso situation 1: on dell-pet105-01, single path iscsi machine can install the RHVH successfully and login by "root" and password. situation 2: on dell-pet515-02, multiLUN and single path iscsi machine can install the RHVH successfully and login by "root" and password. situation 3: on dell-z800-02, mulipath iscsi machine can install the RHVH successfully and login by "root" and password. but first reboot: cannot enter login option second reboot: it work successfully. Additional info: all the above could success when you must choose the same disk to the previous installation, if change the disk option, there will be a mistake when install.

Thanks jiawu for the detail testing. According this test result, the original bug is fixed. You can report a new bug to trace the the new issue. Hi Ryan, Could you help to fill the "Fixed In Version" area with suitable info, then I will verify this bug. Thanks.
This bug is targeted to ovirt-4.1, the RHVH 4.1 build is not ready to QE. We won't verify this bug. and we have to move back to MODIFIED status.
Test Versions: redhat-virtualization-host-4.1-20170116.0 imgbased-0.9.4-0.1.el7ev.noarch Test Steps: Install redhat-virtualization-host-4.1-20170116.0 on dell-per515-02 having 21 iscsi luns 1. Choose all luns to install RHVH 2. Only choose one lun to install RHVH Test Results: 1. RHVH can be installed on all 21 iscsi luns. 2. RHVH can be installed on only one iscsi lun. So, RHVH can be installed on system having a large number of iscsi luns. Set the bug's status to VERIFIED.
