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.

Warnig showed after package selection

Description of problem:
During installation with driverdisk after package selection warning is showed:
"Some of packages you have selected for install are missing dependencies..."

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL6.2-20110907.1 i386 / Server 

How reproducible:

Prepare driverdisk iso image for current build with modified drivers. (see https://wiki.test.redhat.com/pholica/DriverdiskInstructions)

Create partiton (or prepare flash drive) with "OEMDRV" file system label on machine the test will be run on.

Put content of driverdisk iso on this partition.
  
Actual results:
After package selection warning is showed:
"Some of packages you have selected for install are missing dependencies..."

Additional info:
I have tested this installation on RHEL6.1 i386 / Server too and installation was successful, no warning was showed.

To me, this looks like a problem with how the driver disk was constructed.  anaconda is just warning here that what your DD package requires is not available, for whatever reason.  However, I do not know much about driver disks so I can't say for sure what the problem there is.

Comment 3 Martin Sivák 2011-09-20 14:26:24 UTC
Hi Luboš: Can you please attach the anaconda.log and yum.log from the install environment? We can then identity the package which caused this. Anaconda uses DD just as every other repository and you are probably missing dependencies there.

Ok so it is simple. The module (virtio_blk) you used on the driver disc is not compatible with the running kernel.
