Description Jack Reed 2011-10-27 01:38:52 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #695280 +++

Description of problem:
Direct anaconda to install packages from nfs repository of iso images(contain several boot.isos, live cds and dvds) by either repo=nfsiso: or askmethod. Before package selection step, installer claimed it cann't find the install image. The anaconda.log also shows that it didn't recognize the correct dvd.iso among the images.    

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
anaconda 15.27
F15 beta rc2

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
0. Prepare nfs repository with a set of isos
1. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/TestCases/InstallSourceNfsIso

Actual results:
Unable to find and mount the correct iso

Additional info:
This method went smooth if there's only one expected iso in the nfs server.

Proposed as F15Blocker.

It has always been our recommendation that you only have the correct ISOs in the directory you point anaconda to.  I believe the test case and documentation should be updated to reflect that.

Discussed at 2011-04-15 blocker review meeting. As this does not mean the install method in question is actually non-functional, rejected as a blocker.

A subsequent comment in the bug this was cloned from eliminated the need for any modification to the guide, so this bug does not need to be actioned.
