Description of problem: (First off, let me say that I don't regard this as a probem that is destined to be fixed, due to the unusual circumstances, outlined below.) When I run what should be a hands-off kickstart installation, the network spoke pops up and requires a manual "Continue" to proceed. (About 10-20% of the time, it doesn't show, but instead the "Begin Installation" on the hub window is activated, and requires clicking to proceed.) This happens on a VMware virtual machine (the network interfaces appear as ens33 and ens37, i.e., hardwired Ethernet). This always happened while the VM was configured with one single-core CPU. But when I configured it with one dual-core CPU, the problem went away -- anaconda immediately started "Preparing to install", as it should. As I said, I don't expect a resolution of this. Where else but in a virtual machine can you get a single CPU these days? Version-Release number of selected component: anaconda-19.30.8-1.fc19.x86_64 How reproducible: Near 100% Additional info: Someone once said "Threads are evil". I have never argued the point.
Yeah, I have definitely seen this before too.
This should be fixed by the patch for bug 1025347. Thanks for the report.
