Description of problem: File descriptor leak observed on tty6 (see screenshot) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda-10.1.1.86-1 How reproducible: Xen/PV from NFS Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install a minimum package set system 2. shortly after anaconda starts formatting file systems switch to tty6 3. Actual results: File descriptor leaks Expected results: No leaks Additional info: I switched to tty6 (and all others) in order to find out why my installation was going on slow. It is taking more than 30 minutes for a minimum package set. The only related (old) bug I found is: bug #160720 Also seeing bug #443844 during the same install. Probably unrelated.
Created attachment 303526 [details] screen shot of the message on tty6
This is output from lvm. These same messages still appear even in rawhide, except that they're no longer on tty6. Now they're in /tmp/lvmout and maybe tty5. I suspect you'll see them in older RHEL4 releases as well if you look.
See bug 236597. Same thing.
