RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Joshua Kramer 2010-04-23 15:09:17 UTC
Description of problem:

Under VirtualBox, the installer stops after verifying the installation media.  Once I do "Test Media", after that test passes, I get a message, "The RedHat Enterprise Linux 6 Disc was not found in any of your drives.  Please insert the Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 disk and retry."

The SHA-256 of the downloaded image is
c62f9827879e47d7bf45b546e41db008c054b4a5aeb2db250d0aa2c9809971a4

VirtualBox version is 3.1.6 r59338 running on Windows 7 Enterprise.  The machine is a Dell laptop with 4GB RAM; I have given the virtual machine 1GB RAM and 8GB disk.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

First Beta of RHEL6.

How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Create new VM in VirtualBox.
2. Assign 1GB RAM and create 8GB Virtual Disk.
3. Assign the ISO of the Enterprise Linux 6 downloaded image to the first virtual DVD drive.
4. Boot system.
5. Run through media test.
  
Actual results:


Expected results:

Media is ejected after media check is run so you can insert the next disc in the set (if there is one).  Of course you can't see that since you're doing a virt install and there's no media popping out at you.  You need to make sure the disc is reattached somehow (and how will vary by virt setup) before continuing on.  Effectively, you have no media inserted at the moment.

Comment 3 Joshua Kramer 2010-04-23 15:59:56 UTC
This worked - by un-attaching and re-attaching the ISO the install proceeded normally.
