Bug 691337

2) What is the nature and description of the request?

As per
'http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Installation_Guide/ch-Preparing-x86.html#s1-steps-network-installs-x86-nfs',
in order to prepare for an NFS installation, one has to copy the 'images'
folder to another location and this folder must include the 'install.img' file.
This was not needed till RHEL5 and a new addition like this (even though its
documented) is not some thing which a customer would appreciate for a simple
NFS install.

3) Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements here)

Copying the images folder from the ISO to another location is an additional
step needed to be done by the customer. Even though this is documented, this
adds an additional step in the installation process.

4) How would the customer like to achieve this? (List the functional
requirements here)

The customer would like to avoid the extra steps described in
'http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Installation_Guide/ch-Preparing-x86.html#s1-steps-network-installs-x86-nfs'
for an NFS installation. They just need to either copy the ISO to the NFS share
or mount it on the NFS server filesystem, export that mount point and share
that via NFS.

5) Is there already an existing RFE upstream or in Red Hat bugzilla?

Didn't come across anything related.

6) How quickly does this need resolved? (desired target release)

RHEL6.2

7) Does this request meet the RHEL Inclusion criteria (please review).

Yes

8 ) List the affected packages.

anaconda

Would the customer be able to assist in testing this functionality if
implemented?
 
Yes
