Description of problem: When trying to kickstart install a server, I get the following error: "An error has occurred - no valid devices were found on which to create new filesystem" I've already installed RedHat 7.3, manually, on this system. It has an Intel L440GX+ motherboard with an embedded AIC-7896 Adaptec SCSI controller. The installation went fine. I have several other systems identical to this. So, I've created a kickstart file from the anaconda-ks.cfg file from the first install. I tried it with and without the "apic" options at the boot prompt. My disk configuration section of my kickstart file looks like this: clearpart --all part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=2048 --ondisk=sda part / --fstype ext3 --size=6144 --ondisk=sdb part swap --size=2048 --ondisk=sda part swap --size=2048 --ondisk=sda part raid.14 --size=1024 --grow --ondisk=sdb part raid.12 --size=1024 --grow --ondisk=sda raid /ptmp --fstype ext3 --level=RAID0 raid.12 raid.14 I've also tried it without the "=" on the --ondisk option (that's what the https://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-7.3-Manual/custom-guide/s1-kickstart2-options.html states). I've also tried commenting out the disk portion of the kickstart file so I can go into interactive mode during that part, but, I get the same results. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kickstart installation of RedHat 7.3 How reproducible: Try installing via kickstart. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have a system with an AIC-7896 Adaptec SCSI controller. 2. Create a kickstart file 3. Try installing. Actual results: An error has occurred - no valid devices were found on which to create new filesystem Expected results: Start installation of system. Additional info:
Please close this bug. Sorry for openning it. I had a case of cranial-rectitus (my head up my butt). I was trying to use a 7.2 bootnet image to install 7.3. Sorry 'bout that.
