Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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.

Description Jack Reed 2011-11-09 01:55:00 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #713309 +++

Description of problem:

See BZ # 673584

http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/15/html/Installation_Guide/s1-kickstart2-options.html  doesn't say anything about this!


In fact, both the "part" and the "logvol" directives need to list the "--label=" option as a valid and usable option.  I've just used both in a Fedora 15 kickstart, they work.


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

Fedora 15

Hi Joshua,

Thanks for reporting this. I've added --label to the list of commands for both 'part' and 'logvol' in the Fedora 16 version of the guide.

You can view the draft at http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora_Draft_Documentation/0.1/html/Installation_Guide/index.html

Cheers,

Jack

Chris Lumens emailed to confirm that --label applies to RHEL 6.

Removing myself for these bug components as I'm either no longer involved in that aspect of the project, or no longer care to watch this particular bug. Sorry if you are caught in a maelstrom of bug changes as a result!

Comment 7 Dayle Parker 2012-06-21 23:47:08 UTC
This bug is now fixed and available as part of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.3 release on http://docs.redhat.com/.
