Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.

Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite 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 "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. 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 "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-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.

Section Number and Name: 10.5.5. Registering Hosts to Satellite 6 Using The Bootstrap Script

Describe the issue: Step 2 uses `wget` to download the bootstrap script from the Satellite. However, `wget` is not installed by default on RHEL 7, so it is not available for use. While it could be installed, it has to come from a repository, and if the RHEL instance is being registered to the Satellite for content management purposes, we have a chicken-and-egg situation.

Suggestions for improvement: Replace "wget" with "curl -O" as curl is installed by default on RHEL 7, and likely RHEL 6.

Assigning to Melanie for review.

I can confirm that these changes are now merged. 

Thanks,

Melanie
