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.

Description Renaud Métrich 2021-01-05 14:46:45 UTC
Description of problem:

This seems to be regression compared to 8.2.
When configuring a bond on the kernel command line, the following backtrace is seen after anaconda starts:
-------- 8< ---------------- 8< ---------------- 8< ---------------- 8< --------
anaconda 33.16.3.26-1.el8 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.3 started.
 * installation log files are stored in /tmp during the installation
 * shell is available on TTY2
 * if the graphical installation interface fails to start, try again with the
   inst.text bootoption to start text installation
 * when reporting a bug add logs from /tmp as separate text/plain attachments

This prevents installing.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

anaconda-33.16.3.26-1.el8

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set up a VM with 2 network interfaces on same network

 - disconnect link 2 for convenience if you don't have real bonding available (my case)

2. Boot on the network using the following bond configuration

  ip=bond0:dhcp bond=bond0:enp1s0,enp2s0:mode=active-backup


Actual results:

Traceback

Expected results:

No traceback

Additional info:

Doesn't happen on RHEL8.1, 8.2 and 7.9

Comment 1 Jiri Konecny 2021-01-06 10:33:01 UTC
Could you please provide us logs from the installation. You can find them in /tmp/*.log during the installation.

Thank you for the debugging.
The rhel-8 commit is in
https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/2938
and I agree that it should fix this BZ.

Comment 10 Jan Stodola 2021-04-27 19:55:09 UTC
Just a note that this can be reproduced on RHEL-8.3 when the bond device configuration is before the ip= argument on the kernel command line:

bond=bond0:enp1s0,enp2s0:mode=active-backup ip=bond0:dhcp

I wasn't able to reproduce with the order "ip=bond0:dhcp bond=... "

Comment 11 Jan Stodola 2021-04-27 19:59:46 UTC
And since this bug is fixed in RHEL-8.4, I'm closing it as a duplicate of 1890009.
