| 19:03.54 | eightyeight | sjansen: and, i have that _exact_ repo line in the kickstart |
| 19:04.01 | eightyeight | (along with 'cdrom' of course) |
| 19:04.31 | eightyeight | still complains about it, and forces me to edit it |
| 19:05.02 | sjansen | The installer? Or some other tool. 'Cause I haven't had that problem with Anaconda. |
| 19:05.22 | eightyeight | anaconda |
| 19:05.55 | sjansen | How are you starting the install? |
| 19:06.25 | eightyeight | vmlinuz initrd=initrd.img ks=nfs:server.tld:/path/to/ks.cfg |
| 19:06.48 | eightyeight | ks.cfg has 'cdrom' as the installation method, with the repo line as you typed, in tact before %packages |
| 19:08.19 | sjansen | Any reason you don't just spool the media since you're using NFS anyway? |
| 19:08.30 | eightyeight | i don't have the space |
| 19:10.30 | eightyeight | "Error: Unable to read package metadata. This may be due to a missing repodata directory. Please ensure that your install tree has been correctly generated. Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Please verify its path and try again. Exit installer. Edit. Retry. Continue." |
| 19:11.20 | eightyeight | clicking "Edit" shows that "Repository type" is "HTTP/FTP", even though it has "--baseurl=file:///mnt/source" in the ks.cfg |
| 19:11.37 | eightyeight | changing to "CD/DVD" then clicking okay throws that error |
| 19:11.49 | eightyeight | er, this error: |
| 19:12.02 | eightyeight | "No installation media was found. Please insert a disc into your drive and try again." |
| 19:12.14 | eightyeight | ??? even though i've booted off the dvd??? |
| 19:12.21 | eightyeight | is confused |
| 19:12.39 | sjansen | Is this virtualized? |
| 19:13.02 | eightyeight | yes. i've mounted the iso media as a "virtual cdrom" |
| 19:13.25 | eightyeight | i've done 2 previous installs, and the kickstart i'm using know is based on the ones used previously |
| 19:13.39 | eightyeight | the only differences (via diff) are the ip address and hostname |
| 19:13.50 | sjansen | That's probably it. Anaconda does some funky things to the DVD drive. Real drives can take it, but I've not had good luck with virtualized DVD drives. |
| 19:13.55 | eightyeight | (between the 3 kickstarts) |
| 19:13.59 | sjansen | I'm betting you're using KVM? |
| 19:14.12 | eightyeight | ah, no |
| 19:14.23 | eightyeight | so, it's not a virtual gues. i'm doing a bare metal install |
| 19:14.48 | eightyeight | i'm logged into the managament interface that provides a virtual media to connect iso images as though they were the actual cdrom drive |
| 19:14.52 | eightyeight | if that makes sense |
| 19:15.00 | eightyeight | s/gues./guest./ |
| 19:17.31 | eightyeight | i guess i can try spooling it. need to find 5GB of space. |

| 19:18.41 | eightyeight | it's a 2U dell |
| 19:18.47 | sjansen | I'm not familiar enough with ATA to know the right terminology, but when Anaconda sees ks= it does the equivalent of unmounting the drive, then it sees the cdrom line and realizes that it has to reactive the drive. Perhaps your remote interface also has the same problems dealing with that behavior that VMs do. |
| 19:19.15 | eightyeight | i don't understand why it can do the previous 2 installs, and not this one |

| 19:23.21 | eightyeight | the thing that sucks, is i'm under stress to get this done quickly, as we have vendors here to do a software install on these 3 systems |

| 19:24.52 | eightyeight | thankfully, my coworker is long-winded, and he's explaining the architecture overview with them right now, and they're asking questions, so it's buying me some time |
| 19:24.57 | sjansen | eightyeight: Instead of spooling, could just export the remote mounted ISO from another machine? |
| 19:25.30 | eightyeight | sjansen: you mean put the iso on the nfs server, and tell the installer to look for that instead? |
| 19:26.37 | sjansen | I'm assuming the the two that are already installed are accessible from the third. So use drac on one that worked to mount the iso on one of the first two and configure that system to export nfs to the third. |
| 19:27.34 | eightyeight | yeah. i was just copying the iso over to the first, to spool and export from there |
| 19:27.35 | sjansen | Although, yes, Anaconda has the ability to read ISOs over NFS. But I trust spooling more and it take the same amount of disk space. |
| 19:27.52 | eightyeight | 72% copied |
