Kickstart script

Description of problem:
Anaconda crashes when I try to run the attached kickstart

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
18.37.11

How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load the Fedora network install media on a flash drive
2. Boot the flash drive
3. Instruct the boot process to use the attached kickstart
  
Actual results:
The anaconda process crashes after starting the package installation process:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/threads.py", line 91 in run
    threading.Thread.run(self, *args, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/threading.py", line 504, in run
    self.__target(*self.__args, **self.__kwargs)
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/install.py", line 124, in doInstall
    payload.preInstall(packages=packages, groups=payload.languageGroups(ksdata.lang.lang))
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/packaging/yumpayload.py", line 1320, in preInstall
    sys.exit(1)
SystemExit: 1

Expected results:
Anaconda should not crash

Comment 8 Chris Lumens 2013-01-16 16:38:33 UTC
We can fix it so it shutdown instead of crashes, but keep in mind that you'll still be getting dependency errors which I believe is due to the following lines in your kickstart file (note the version numbers):

url --url http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/18/Fedora/x86_64/os/
repo --name=everything-x86_64        --baseurl=http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/17/Everything/x86_64/os/

In text mode you get no feedback at all about what went wrong.

Comment 10 Chris Lumens 2013-03-22 15:48:06 UTC
Can you please retest with an f19-based anaconda and let me know if this is still broken?  Thanks.

This is still a problem with 19.13.  See attached screen shot.  Let me know if you want any other logs, but this does seem to be caused by missing dependencies again.
