Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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 Jon Masters 2011-01-26 10:49:25 UTC
Description of problem:

Several attempts have been made to fix the inclusion of /sbin/biosdevname into Anaconda, but the most recent compose does not seem to have worked, if the content of boot.iso is anything to go by. Can you guys please take another look into this (and possibly generate a specific extra compose or boot.iso with rel-eng so that we can be sure it is fixed before tomorrow's 6.1 compose?)

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

anaconda-13.21.91-1.el6

How reproducible:

Verify the content of boot.iso does not contain /sbin/biosdevname

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Extract the boot.iso from a compose
2. Extract the initrd.img
3. Look for /sbin/biosdevname
  
Actual results:

No /sbin/biosdevname is found

Expected results:

/sbin/biosdevname is picked up in the compose

Additional info:

http://download.devel.redhat.com/nightly/RHEL6.1-20110126.n.0/6.1/Server/x86_64/os/images/boot.iso was used in this test.
