This occurred at the end of a kickstart installation on a VM on a Fedora 13 host. $ sudo virt-install --name f16b --ram 1024 --vnc --cdrom=/data/shared/isos/Fedora-16-Alpha-x86_64-DVD/Fedora-16-Alpha-x86_64-DVD.iso --os-type=linux --disk path=/var/lib/libvirt/images/fedora16b.img,size=30 --vcpus=2 Then on the boot menu I appended the ks=http://1.2.3.4/kickstart/ks.cfg option. The section of the kickstart profile that defines users and groups is: # default groups group --name=data --gid=502 user --name=m8ram --gecos="Bram Mertens" --groups="wheel,data" --password=xxxx --iscrypted --uid=500 user --name=kim --gecos="Kim Hosteaux" --groups="data" --password=xxxx --iscrypted --uid=501 user --name=thor --gecos="thor" --password=xxxx --iscrypted --uid=503 user --name=mockbuild --gecos="mock build user" --password=xxxx --iscrypted --uid=504 where xxxx is the encrypted password. The same kickstart file was usd successfully to install a Fedora 15 image on the same QEMU hypervisor.

Created attachment 522988 [details] systemd error message at startup after shutting down the machine with incomplete installation (all packages were installed but this crash occured before finalizing the installation) I started the machine with the same Fedora16 alpha DVD in rescue mode. These are the error message displayed before the language selection screen is shown. Rescue mode ends with a message saying: "You don't have any Linux partitions." Yet the file systems is mounted on /mnt/sysimage. The install.log ends with: 20:32:30 Installing gnome-backgrounds-3.1.2-1.fc16.noarch grubby fatal error: unable to find a suitable template grubby: doing this would leave no kernel entries. Not writing out new config. *** FINISHED INSTALLING PACKAGES *** I can provide the full install.log and install.log.syslog and the anaconda-tb-yvd9ue log if needed.
