Description Steven Haigh 2010-09-26 07:50:49 UTC
Description of problem:
When trying to install onto an EeePC 1005P with USB DVD drive, I attempted to boot from the DVD and complete an install as per normal from the RC3 DVD.

When it got to the repo selection screen, the only repos that could be selected were internet based repos - even though the full install was available on the DVD that was booted from.

How reproducible:
Every install.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot from DVD in USB DVD drive.
2. Proceed with install.

Will attach all anaconda logs for reference.

Please let me know if any additional information is required.

Comment 5 Chris Lumens 2010-09-27 14:40:11 UTC
When you get to the boot menu on the DVD, can you remove the following argument:

stage2=hd:LABEL=Fedora

and see if anaconda figures it out correctly?

Comment 6 Clyde E. Kunkel 2010-09-27 14:56:00 UTC
I tried a clean install from an USB HP DVD reader/writer using the beta gold DVD and did not encounter any problems.  Did not specify any addition parms on the kernel cmd line.

Comment 7 Steven Haigh 2010-09-28 17:57:01 UTC
Tried removing stage2=hd:LABEL=Fedora from the boot lines on the DVD with no difference. Only internet repos were visible.

Comment 8 James Laska 2010-10-04 13:45:24 UTC
I think this is related to (or a duplicate of) bug#627789.  Can you retry your test, and boot with the option "updates=http://bcl.fedorapeople.org/updates/627789.img"

Let me know if that resolves the reported problem.  If so, please CLOSE DUPLICATE this issue against 627789.  Thanks!

I stand corrected, this is unrelated to that problem.  There is something specific to this USB DVD install case where the DVD is used for stage2 (install.img), but then it is no longer seen when it comes time for 'reposetup'

According to clumens and bcl, "no ID_FS_TYPE for sr0" may indicate that udev has somehow eaten information about this drive?

The attached /tmp/storage.log also indicates a similar problem

Not sure if the following udevadm information is helpful ...

14:11:34   CRCinAU: ie only http repos are listed

Additional information, running 'blkid' by hand on the installing system, it doesn't see sr0 either.

anaconda-logs.tgz (/tmp/*log*)

Yay!  I've duplicated this install issue on a nearby system using a USB CD-ROM.  The good news, the install continues using the HTTP repos, the bad news is that it defeats the purpose of a CD/DVD install since it requires networking.  I suspect this is specific to USB CD/DVD installs, as regular CD/DVD installs appear to work without error.

Attaching a tarball containing the following log information.

Comment 13 James Laska 2010-10-05 13:46:33 UTC
Adding harald for expertise on udev.  

Summary: USB CD/DVD installs correctly boot and transition to stage2, but the package repo on the CD/DVD isn't available during package install.  The CD/DVD is available to mount manually from tt2, but doesn't show up when running 'blkid'. 'blkid'?  

See comment#9 for thoughts from clumens regarding the message "no ID_FS_TYPE for sr0"

Comment 14 Harald Hoyer 2010-10-05 13:51:06 UTC
is anaconda doing a chroot? if yes, then the cdrom must also be mounted in the new chroot.

Comment 15 Harald Hoyer 2010-10-05 13:53:56 UTC
cdrom_id uses /proc/self/mountinfo, and if the cdrom is not found there, then it assumes the cdrom is not mounted. It then tries to open the cdrom with O_EXCL, which fails with -EBUSY for a mounted cdrom. If the cdrom is found in /proc/self/mountinfo, cdrom_id does not use O_EXCL.

I don't think stage#2 anaconda runs in a chroot.

Comment 17 James Laska 2010-10-05 15:17:55 UTC
With Harald's help, we determined that F-14-Beta and F-13 + udev-153-4.fc13 both experience the following problem ...

# /lib/udev/cdrom_id --debug /dev/sr1
main: probing: '/dev/sr1'

Harald identified a recent upstream udev patch intended to work with buggy/quirky optical devices (see http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/hotplug/udev.git;a=commitdiff;h=678df8a461c7573bf423a39be383bc7b70d943df).

I tested an updated cdrom_id binary built with that patch on my F-13 system, and it appears to properly identify the optical device.

Steven, on the installing F-14 system where you boot the USB DVD drive, can you run the following command ...

# /lib/udev/cdrom_id --debug /dev/sr0

I think there is some information missing here. The error message should be something like:

GET CONFIGURATION failed with SK=xxx/ASC=xxx/ACQ=xxxx

This could help us to see why it is failing.

Installed udev-161-3.fc14 from http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=199008

Same output from cdrom_id. Interestingly, on a working F14 install, the DVD drive does not get auto-mounted in gnome. Probably the same root cause as everything else, but I thought it would be worth mentioning as well.

Comment 27 James Laska 2010-10-05 19:57:10 UTC
When testing udev-161-3.fc14 on an installed F-14 system, it allows GNOME to see the optical USB CD-ROM device I was attempting to install from in comment#17.  I'm attempting to create F-14 ISO media with the updated udev package to confirm if this resolves the installer issue for me.

Harald, it seems that the failures of Steven's optical USB DVD drive might be different.  How would you like to proceed with the originally reported issue?

Comment 28 Fedora Update System 2010-10-05 21:49:58 UTC
udev-161-3.fc14 has been pushed to the Fedora 14 testing repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
 If you want to test the update, you can install it with 
 su -c 'yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update udev'.  You can provide feedback for this update here: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/udev-161-3.fc14

Comment 29 Steven Haigh 2010-10-06 22:33:55 UTC
Just to confirm, udev-161-3.fc14 does not seem to solve this issue.

Harald ... what are your thoughts?  It seems the fix resolves the issue for my USB CD-ROM drive, but the originally reported USB DVD drive issue remains.

Would you like me to clone this into a new bug to continue working the USB-DVD drive failure?

James, Out of interest, when you have udev-161-3 installed, does the DVD/CD drive appear in gnome automatically? I found that although it is not seen within gnome, when plugging the drive in I could manually mount it via: mount /dev/cdrom /path/to/mount and access the drive as per normal.

Also, did you manage (or is it possible) to do an update image for the install process that I might be able to test out for the installer?

Sadly, I only have i686 on this system. Apparently it is capable of x86_64, however with only 1Gb of RAM, its not really worth running.

Yes, the good news was that with udev-161-3, the USB CD drive appeared in GNOME/nautilus and was accessible without requiring any command-line access.  This was not the case prior to the updated udev package.

I created updated ISO images for test the other day, but they failed to boot.  I'm still getting familiar with creating ISO images myself.  I'll try again shortly.

I confirmed that this fixed my USB CD-ROM issue using the ISO's posted for the F-14 Pre-RC acceptance test milestone (http://serverbeach1.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/stage/14.TC1/).

I'd still like to see Steven's test results using the images above (or the official F-14-Final TC1 ISOs).
