Description of problem: If liveinst is run graphically it just fails with no error. When run from the command line, the following error: [liveuser@localhost ~]$ /usr/bin/liveinst Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/anaconda-cleanup", line 41, in <module> from pyanaconda.cmdline import InstallInterface File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/cmdline.py", line 25, in <module> import parted File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/parted/__init__.py", line 53, in <module> from partition import Partition File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/parted/partition.py", line 249, in <module> partitionFlag[__flag] = _ped.partition_flag_get_name(__flag) ValueError: Invalid flag provided. localuser:root being added to access control list Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/anaconda", line 507, in <module> from pyanaconda import kickstart File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/kickstart.py", line 21, in <module> from storage.deviceaction import * File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/storage/__init__.py", line 31, in <module> import parted File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/parted/__init__.py", line 53, in <module> from partition import Partition File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/parted/partition.py", line 249, in <module> partitionFlag[__flag] = _ped.partition_flag_get_name(__flag) ValueError: Invalid flag provided. This is on a Fedora REMIX with the latest packages installed as of June 7, 2011. The bug was first brought to my attention on the Fedora Remix mailing list: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/remixes/2011-June/000046.html I was able to verify that the bug still existed even with the updates of the day applied. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda-15.31-1.fc15 anaconda has not been updated yet since the initial Fedora 15 release but a number of other components have... including the kernel. I'm not sure what additional info would be helpful. Ask and I will supply. This was on a KVM virtual machine reusing an existing .img disk file that worked with tons of previous install testing.
This is because I updated parted w/o updating pyparted. It needs a patch from master cherry-picked to add the GPT legacy_boot flag support.

Brian C. Lane, Sounds like you know how to fix it so please do so when you have a chance. The only additional thing I have to offer is a diff of two package lists... comparing the package lists of my last working build to my first broken build... and sure enough, parted is only the list. 40,41c40,41 < apr-1.4.2-3.fc15.i686 < apr-util-1.3.10-7.fc15.i686 --- > apr-1.4.5-1.fc15.i686 > apr-util-1.3.12-1.fc15.i686 104,107c104,107 < bind-libs-9.8.0-3.P1.fc15.i686 < bind-libs-lite-9.8.0-3.P1.fc15.i686 < bind-license-9.8.0-3.P1.fc15.noarch < bind-utils-9.8.0-3.P1.fc15.i686 --- > bind-libs-9.8.0-5.P2.fc15.i686 > bind-libs-lite-9.8.0-5.P2.fc15.i686 > bind-license-9.8.0-5.P2.fc15.noarch > bind-utils-9.8.0-5.P2.fc15.i686 278,279c278,279 < evolution-3.0.1-1.fc15.i686 < evolution-data-server-3.0.1-1.fc15.i686 --- > evolution-3.0.2-1.fc15.i686 > evolution-data-server-3.0.2-1.fc15.i686 311c311 < flash-plugin-10.3.181.14-release.i386 --- > flash-plugin-10.3.181.22-release.i386 394c394 < gnome-dvb-daemon-0.2.0-1.fc15.i686 --- > gnome-dvb-daemon-0.2.1-1.fc15.i686 422c422 < gnome-settings-daemon-3.0.1-4.fc15.i686 --- > gnome-settings-daemon-3.0.1-6.fc15.i686 706c706 < libcgroup-0.37.1-2.fc15.i686 --- > libcgroup-0.37.1-3.fc15.i686 904c904 < libtorrent-0.12.7-1.fc15.i686 --- > libtorrent-0.12.8-1.fc15.i686 1005c1005 < logrotate-3.7.9-8.fc15.i686 --- > logrotate-3.7.9-11.fc15.i686 1115,1117c1115,1117 < NetworkManager-0.8.999-3.git20110526.fc15.i686 < NetworkManager-glib-0.8.999-3.git20110526.fc15.i686 < NetworkManager-gnome-0.8.999-3.git20110526.fc15.i686 --- > NetworkManager-0.8.9997-1.git20110531.fc15.i686 > NetworkManager-glib-0.8.9997-1.git20110531.fc15.i686 > NetworkManager-gnome-0.8.9997-1.git20110531.fc15.i686 1200c1200 < parted-2.3-8.fc15.i686 --- > parted-2.3-9.fc15.i686 1425c1425 < rdesktop-1.6.0-11.fc15.i686 --- > rdesktop-1.6.0-12.fc15.i686 1466c1466 < rtorrent-0.8.7-6.fc15.i686 --- > rtorrent-0.8.8-1.fc15.i686 1482,1483c1482,1483 < selinux-policy-3.9.16-24.fc15.noarch < selinux-policy-targeted-3.9.16-24.fc15.noarch --- > selinux-policy-3.9.16-26.fc15.noarch > selinux-policy-targeted-3.9.16-26.fc15.noarch 1487c1487 < setroubleshoot-3.0.31-1.fc15.i686 --- > setroubleshoot-3.0.35-1.fc15.i686 1489c1489 < setroubleshoot-server-3.0.31-1.fc15.i686 --- > setroubleshoot-server-3.0.35-1.fc15.i686 1500c1500 < shotwell-0.9.2-1.fc15.i686 --- > shotwell-0.9.3-1.fc15.i686 1505c1505 < sip-4.12.1-3.fc15.i686 --- > sip-4.12.1-5.fc15.i686 1595c1595 < Thunar-1.2.1-5.fc15.i686 --- > Thunar-1.2.2-1.fc15.i686 1679c1679 < xfce4-settings-4.8.1-4.fc15.i686 --- > xfce4-settings-4.8.2-1.fc15.i686 1743c1743 < xorg-x11-server-common-1.10.1-14.fc15.i686 --- > xorg-x11-server-common-1.10.2-1.fc15.i686 1745,1746c1745,1746 < xorg-x11-server-Xephyr-1.10.1-14.fc15.i686 < xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.10.1-14.fc15.i686 --- > xorg-x11-server-Xephyr-1.10.2-1.fc15.i686 > xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.10.2-1.fc15.i686
Scott if you please push the update, I produce updated livecd for the community having an updated livecds are saving alot of new users problems
You can work around this by not installing the latest f15 parted.
(In reply to comment #5) > You can work around this by not installing the latest f15 parted. Some of us remixers setup our own local mirrors but primarily just rsync from the stock Fedora repos. Others of us use the stock Fedora repos remotely. In both cases, once something is in the official repos, it is a bit of engineering to not use a current package and use an older one instead... but I'm sure I'm not telling you anything you don't already know. Point taken.

I tried to build a livecd after updating to the latest version of pyparted (pyparted-3.5-3). I encountered the following bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=712468 Here is my kickstart file: http://zer0c00l.in/downloads/fedora-aos.ks Is it problem with my kickstart package selection or anaconda? liveinst -C isn't working either.
