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 Bill Nottingham 2010-05-21 16:32:15 UTC 
Description of problem:

As a followup to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=594803:

- I select 'Basic storage devices'
- It shows me a list of (one) drive(s)
- I pick it, and hit 'Next'
- I then get a 'Finding storage devices...' dialog.

It appears to odd to be finding storage devices after, from all appearances, it's already found them.

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2010-05-27 13:55:56 UTC 
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux major release.  Product Management has requested further
review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux Major release.  This request is not yet committed for
inclusion.
Comment 3 Chris Lumens 2010-05-28 17:18:59 UTC 
Well, the first time we've just run through udev's list of devices.  The second time - when you see the dialog - we're inspecting all the devices to see what partitions and filesystems are on them, building and tearing down RAID devices, etc.  That's the slow part and really needs some sort of progress indicator, but it's hard to decide what to put there that doesn't sound overly technical.
Comment 4 Bill Nottingham 2010-05-28 20:43:05 UTC 
Perhaps change the second one to 'Inspecting storage devices...'? I dunno.
Comment 5 Chris Lumens 2010-06-04 17:41:33 UTC 
There's still a little time before string freeze, and this has always bugged me.  I'll try to come up with a fix in the next week and get it in.
Comment 7 Alexander Todorov 2010-07-07 16:23:33 UTC 
In snap #7 I see a dialog that says "Examining storage devices" instead of the "Finding storage devices" in earlier snapshots. Moving to VERIFIED.
Comment 8 releng-rhel@redhat.com 2010-11-10 19:44:39 UTC 
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 is now available and should resolve
