Description of problem: When I try to make a network installation of rawhide from the URL http://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/Linux/MIRROR.fedora/core/development/x86_64/os/ it fails with the following error: Unable to complete install '<class 'ConfigParser.NoSectionError'> No section: 'images-i386' Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/create.py", line 1501, in do_install dom = guest.start_install(False, meter = meter) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/virtinst/Guest.py", line 539, in start_install self._prepare_install(meter) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/virtinst/Guest.py", line 594, in _prepare_install meter = meter) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/virtinst/DistroInstaller.py", line 233, in prepare self._prepare_kernel_and_initrd(guest, distro, meter) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/virtinst/DistroInstaller.py", line 182, in _prepare_kernel_and_initrd type=self.os_type, distro=distro) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/virtinst/OSDistro.py", line 133, in acquireKernel scratchdir, type, distro) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/virtinst/OSDistro.py", line 119, in _acquireMedia return (store.acquireKernel(guest, fetcher, progresscb), File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/virtinst/OSDistro.py", line 215, in acquireKernel kernelpath = self._getTreeinfoMedia("kernel") File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/virtinst/OSDistro.py", line 272, in _getTreeinfoMedia return self.treeinfo.get("images-%s" % t, mediaName) File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/ConfigParser.py", line 531, in get raise NoSectionError(section) NoSectionError: No section: 'images-i386' ' However making an installation of F11 from this URL http://ftp.uni-bayreuth.de/linux/fedora/linux/releases/11/Fedora/x86_64/os/ works fine Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): virt-manager-0.7.0-5.fc11.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. try to network install rawhide from the following URL http://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/Linux/MIRROR.fedora/core/development/x86_64/os/ Actual results: fails to create VM Expected results: succeeds to create VM Additional info:
The rawhide repo you have there has totally fubar .treeinfo file http://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/Linux/MIRROR.fedora/core/development/x86_64/os/.treeinfo Your tree there is x86_64, but the .treeinfo file is claiming its i386, and more over the data is still incomplete, missing the 'images-x86_64' section that you would expect for x86_64. Either the mirror you're using is broken, or the tool that created rawhide spins is broken. Changing component to pungi, because that's my best guess as to what tools responsible for .treeinfo generation. Do re-assign elsewhere if I'm wrong.
It's actually anaconda's buildinstall, and it seems fixed now, although I don't see any obvious fixes in anaconda.git
