Description of problem: This is a follow-up of bug 967531. Installation source command (url, cdrom, nfs, ...) is now required in kickstart. Anaconda-generated kickstart contains "cdrom" or "nfs" if that's how you perform the interactive installation, but it doesn't contain "url" if you perform a network installation. This means the anaconda-generated kickstart is invalid by anaconda's own standards and can't be simply re-used for further installations. This might confuse some administrators used to do that. Please add "url" command to anaconda-ks.cfg if you perform a network installation. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda-19.30.3-1.fc19 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. perform a network installation 2. see no 'url' in /root/anaconda-ks.cfg
Please propose as FinalFreezeException if you intend to fix this into F19 release. Thanks.
Doesn't this arguably constitute a blocker per Beta criterion "The installer must be able to complete a scripted installation which duplicates the default interactive installation as closely as possible. "? Well, hum, that's worded a bit more tightly than I thought it was; it's written with the assumption that the generated KS will always be accurate and any problems will be in actually running against that KS, which this bug seems to indicate is not a valid assumption. Perhaps we need to change the criterion.
F19 release includes url in the generated kickstart
(In reply to David Shea from comment #3) > F19 release includes url in the generated kickstart Interesting, doesn't work for me. F19 x86_64 netinst, minimal install, interactive. No "url" in anaconda-ks.cfg. How did you try it?
Oops, you're right. I had gone into the installation source spoke and set a URL. The kickstart does not include a url directive if the default netinst source is used.
This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
