Description of problem: when passing iscsi_name to autoinstall, the installation fails and sends you to a TUI screen stating something like "Invalid installation, please reboot with reinstall" Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 6.2 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1.boot with iscsi_name=.... 2.include other required params for autoinstall 3. Actual results: Fails Expected results: Passes and sets iscsi_name correctly Additional info:
Further investigation showed that this is unrelated to iscsi_name. It is actually due to the presence (or lack thereof) of the local_boot parameter. If not specified, the step that would actually install the image and reboot the host would not run.
Note: upgrade is an alias for local_boot and would fix this issue as well.

Now, neither the local_boot or upgrade parameters are required for autoinstall, but firstboot or reinstall is required for autoinstall. Check details in 788225. Verified on 6.3-20120330, autoinstall with BOOTIF storage_init firstboot/reinstall is successfully. Set bug status to verified.
