Description of problem: breed = suse /boot/grub/menu.lst contains kssendmac Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): cobbler-1.2.9-1.fc9.noarch How reproducible: Install a SuSE client Actual results: kssendmac exists as a boot parameter on a SuSE client Expected results: No kssendmac boot parameter Additional info: Find a way to avoid adding kssendmac to the kernel_options string if it's not applicable to the breed. Hack (since I'm only installing SuSE clients): # diff utils.py utils.py.ori 478,479c478,479 < # if len(kernel_txt) < 244: < # results["kernel_options"]["kssendmac"] = None --- > if len(kernel_txt) < 244: > results["kernel_options"]["kssendmac"] = None
Moving this to the cobbler component, Fedora product.
Oops, I misread the release - can you check if this is still a bug in F10 or F11 and close this if it's fixed?
I just checked the 1.6.8 source, utils.py still has the same code. It's not fixed yet. +===+ # determine if we have room to add kssendmac to the kernel options line kernel_txt = hash_to_string(results["kernel_options"]) if len(kernel_txt) < 244: results["kernel_options"]["kssendmac"] = None +===+
Please make sure there's an equivalent Trac item on this open at fedorahosted.org/cobbler ... that's the main list for items we fix upstream. Seems like this would be an easy one for some one with some SuSE boxes to quickly patch/test, no?
Opened up a Trac item here so we don't loose track of this one. https://fedorahosted.org/cobbler/ticket/478#preview
The bug is reported against a version of Fedora that is no longer maintained and Trac tickets appears to be addressed Can this bug be closed?
