Description of problem: The kernel line of my grub.conf changed at memtest update with using latest mkinitrd, because showlabels disappeared: --- /etc/grub.conf.rsc 2005-12-24 14:44:50.000000000 +0100 +++ /etc/grub.conf 2006-02-11 18:38:30.000000000 +0100 @@ -16,4 +16,4 @@ initrd /initrd-2.6.14-2smp.img title Memtest86+ (1.65) root (hd0,0) - kernel /memtest86+-1.65 ro root=LABEL=/ + kernel /memtest86+-1.65 ro root=/dev/cciss/c0d0p2 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mkinitrd-5.0.21-1 How reproducible: echo "showlabels" | /sbin/nash --force --quiet Actual results: No showlabels, but /sbin/new-kernel-pkg and /sbin/new-memtest-pkg are using the command... Expected results: I dunno what's the best solution for, but a fix for getting working label support again would be nice ;-) Additional info: [19:00:20] < rsc> pjones: is there a special reason for removing "showlabels" command from nash in mkinitrd, but leaving it in /sbin/new-kernel-pkg and /sbin/ new-memtest-pkg? [19:01:43] < pjones> rsc: eeek, an awful oversight [19:01:46] < rsc> pjones: is LABEL getting obsolete for mkinitrd? [19:02:08] < rsc> pjones: btw, man page also contains showlabels ;) [19:02:34] < pjones> no. [19:02:45] < pjones> yeah, the man page is horribly wrong about many things. [19:03:55] < rsc> is the following change correct? [19:03:55] < rsc> - kernel /memtest86+-1.65 ro root=LABEL=/ [19:03:55] < rsc> + kernel /memtest86+-1.65 ro root=/dev/cciss/c0d0p2 [19:04:06] < pjones> hrm. show labels should actually be easy to put back now. [19:04:22] < rsc> while updating from mkinitrd .17 to .21 [19:04:28] < pjones> rsc: change to... grub.conf ? [19:04:33] < rsc> yes [19:04:47] < pjones> it should work, but then both ways should work. [19:05:08] * pjones wonders if libblkid needs to be fixed to grok cciss/sx8/etc- style paths. [19:05:51] < rsc> pjones: should I open a bug report? [19:05:58] < pjones> yes. [19:06:00] < pjones> thank you ;) [19:06:23] < rsc> pjones: against what? mkinitrd or e2fsprogs? [19:06:53] < pjones> mkinitrd will be fine [19:07:10] * pjones will most likely get to fix it either way ;) [19:10:34] < pjones> rsc: you don't happen to know off the top of your head when showlabels dissapeared, do you? [19:11:35] < pjones> nm, found it. [19:12:43] < rsc> pjones: .17 to .21
Hehe, re-using the duplicate of my bug report for the Red Hat Bugzilla problem. After submitting my bug report (#181015 & #181016), I got the following error message by https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/post_bug.cgi: Invalid Product Name The product name '' is invalid or does not exist. Please press Back and try again. And now? What's broken or am I too dumb for writing bug reports? ;-)
Were you using the guided bug form or the normal expert form when you encountered this error? Was the product displayed in the form before hitting submit?
I did the following: New > expert bug form > Fedora Products > Fedora Core which loads https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi?product=Fedora% 20Core here and displays: Product Fedora Core Oh and I'm using Opera 8.5 (with JavaScript enabled, of course).
Ah...and the error message from comment #1 is only displayed after submitting a new bug report (not at comments) at that point, where I normally should be automatically redirected to my bug report (is this a new feature?). Mails to QA and Red Hat people are sent as far as I can see in the short delay before getting the error.
I also get The product name '' is invalid or does not exist. generally the exact same symptoms. A couple of times, it led me to resubmit (causing dup reports). I am also using Opera 8.5 ..jim
Ping...can we get rid of this problem?
When submitting another Bugzilla bug (#193497), I run into this problem...like every time - one more time. Could you please fix the problem ASAP? Thanks ;-)
Hello, same problem here: New > Red Hat Enterprise Linux Beta > Enter Bug (Expert): This page lets you enter a new bug into Bugzilla. > Invalid Product Name Using Opera 9.02 with JavaScript allowed for redhat.com domain.
Ping, just experienced this. See Bugs 223216, 223217 and 223218. They were dups caused by this bug making me think my bug hadn't been reported. Happened with Opera 9.02 Build 8585 and IE 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158 ...Stu
The same problem happends with Opera 9.10 using Windows XP SP2 and enabled JavaScript, too. Can you please fix this annoying problem soon? ;-)
The problems happends with IE 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158, too.

I have made a recent change that alleviates the problem with my testing of IE6 and Opera 9.23. Please reopen this bug if it continues to be an issue. Dave
