While installing onto a system using a pre-existing reiserfs /home, anaconda traces back because it can't find reiserfstune. Traceback follows - full dump is attached. Traceback (most recent call first): File "/usr/lib/anaconda/iutil.py", line 51, in execWithRedirect raise RuntimeError, "Error running " + command + ": " + msg File "/usr/lib/anaconda/fsset.py", line 434, in labelDevice stderr = "/dev/tty5", searchPath = 1) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/fsset.py", line 1571, in labelEntry entry.fsystem.labelDevice(entry, chroot) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/fsset.py", line 1688, in makeFilesystems self.labelEntry(entry, chroot) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/packages.py", line 144, in turnOnFilesystems anaconda.id.fsset.makeFilesystems (anaconda.rootPath) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/dispatch.py", line 201, in moveStep rc = stepFunc(self.anaconda) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/dispatch.py", line 124, in gotoNext self.moveStep() File "/usr/lib/anaconda/gui.py", line 973, in nextClicked self.anaconda.dispatch.gotoNext() File "/usr/lib/anaconda/iw/progress_gui.py", line 247, in renderCallback self.intf.icw.nextClicked() File "/usr/lib/anaconda/gui.py", line 1000, in handleRenderCallback self.currentWindow.renderCallback() RuntimeError: Error running reiserfstune: No such file or directory

We should make it so that we handle the tools for various filesystems not being there better
reiserfstune should be there. scripts/upd-instroot has reiserfs-utils in the pile of packages to use to build the stage2 image. Still, I agree with Jeremy, execWithRedirect (among others) could gracefully handle a tool missing.
What are the exact install parameters here? reiserfs on a /home partition, no existing other installs or partitions?
I believe there was an existing install on the disk that was being replaced with F7t1, where /home was reiserfs and the other partitions were (probably) ext3 - IIRC the user was attempting to install (not upgrade) but also wanted to preserve /home.
I'm unable to reproduce this today. Perhaps there was some transient tree weirdness that caused reiserfstune to not be in the image?
Possibly. Does reiserfstune live in initrd or stage2? We should compare the current rawhide one to the F7t1 one and see if the location (or presence) of the file has changed.
Looks like it was left out of the minstg2.img on Test 1, but it's in the images now. Closing out.
Just to clarify, the reiserfs tools didn't make the manifest for Test1 (and possibly test2). Twas a pungi bug.
