Description Doug Chapman 2008-04-16 16:34:47 UTC
Description of problem:
It appears this is a fallout of the changing from boot.iso to netinst.iso and
then back to boot.iso.  On ia64 we no longer get a boot.iso created.  I am
digging through the code now to understand why but figured I would file this
just in case it was an obvious fix to you guys.

The last version that worked OK appears to have been just before the commit:
6e48880d0b0aa76f139fdca081c5ca48c146ee82 Change the ISOs we build

Which should have still created netinst.iso as I understand it.  From that point
on we no longer got boot.iso or netinst.iso.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
anaconda-11.4.0.41-1 and later up through anaconda-11.4.0.71-1

patch to replacemissing '/' in mkisofs command line

It appears the problem is we are missing a '/' in the command line of mkisofs
in mk-images.ia64.  I am testing with this fix now to ensure that is all that
is wrong but either way this patch is needed.

Comment 2 Doug Chapman 2008-04-16 22:30:07 UTC
I have confirmed that my above patch does indeed fix the missing boot.iso problem.


Comment 3 Jeremy Katz 2008-04-17 02:02:37 UTC
Applied

Comment 4 Doug Chapman 2008-04-18 18:02:51 UTC
Jeremy,

anaconda-11.4.0.73-2 still has this issue, the patch appears to not have been
applied yet.

Comment 5 Jeremy Katz 2008-04-18 18:23:19 UTC
We haven't done a build since the patch was pushed (well, we did, but it was a
build with only a small targeted fix rather than top of the tree)

Comment 6 Bug Zapper 2008-05-14 09:32:19 UTC
Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA.
