Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.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 Perry Myers 2011-12-14 14:39:51 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #767623 +++

Description of problem:
Kernel version is probably one of the more important things to have handy when looking at an oVirt Node image.  Putting the kernel version in the ISO name would make the ISO name pretty long, but we could put the kernel version in the getty login prompt and also perhaps in the grub menu somewhere.  This would make for easier identification for users

Comment 1 Mike Burns 2011-12-14 15:26:57 UTC

From upstream, we already have kernel info in the getty prompt:

oVirt Node Hypervisor release 2.1 (0.fc16)
Kernel 3.1.2-1.fc16.x86_64 on an x86_64 (ttyS0)
Virtualization hardware is unavailable.
(No virtualization hardware was detected on this system)
