anaconda log

Description of problem:

After my netinstall anaconda created an ifcfg-pci10p1 network script, but the correct device name was actually ifcfg-p10p1. I had to find this name manually in /proc and rename the ifcfg script and edit the device name inside it.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
F15 Beta netinstall

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install fedora minimal 
2. system network start --> fails, complains of missing device
3.
  
Actual results:
cannot internet

Expected results:
internet

Additional info:
I don't know which specific anaconda logs are important but I'll try

Comment 3 Radek Vykydal 2011-05-11 09:31:26 UTC 
Thanks for the report.
This is because of using F15 Beta compose with "Updates Testing" repository
containing newer version of biosdevname. In F15 Test Candidate the problem is
gone as the compose contains the newer version of biosdevname (pXpY).
